A potter's wheel with radius Ra spins at an angular speed Ξ©a and touches a smaller wheel with radius Rb at its outer edges which spins at an angular speed Ξ©b. What is the ratio Ξ©a/Ξ©b?
Consider a conveyor belt system that has two sprockets connected by a single belt. The driving sprocket which is attached to a motor has ππ of teeth and a radius of π π, and the driven sprocket which is attached to the conveyor belt, has ππ of teeth and has a radius of π π. When the motor runs, the driving sprocket rotates with an angular velocity of π€π, and the driven sprocket rotates with an angular velocity of π€π. Determine how the angular velocity of the driven sprocket π€π is related to the angular velocity of the driving sprocket π€π by using the value for the number of teeth located on the sprockets.
If a wheel with a radius of 0.5 m rotates at an angular velocity of 10 rad/s, what is the tangential velocity at the edge of the wheel?
A car's wheel with a radius of 0.35 m is connected to a gear system. If the gear system has a radius of 0.07 m and rotates at 1000 RPM, what is the car wheel's angular velocity?
Convert an angular velocity of 2Ο rad/s into RPM.
