8. A fan that is turning at 10 rpm speeds up to 25 rpm in 10 seconds. How many
radians and rotations does the blade require to alter its speed? (Note: You
must first convert the rpm to rad/s)

9. An old phonograph played some records at 45 rpm or 4.71 rad/sec. Lets say the
phonograph is turning at 45 rpm and then the motor is turned off, taking 0.75
seconds to come to a stop. (records rotate clockwise)
a) What is its average angular acceleration? 6.28 rad/s
b) How many rotations did it make while coming to a stop? 1.47 rotations
10.A flywheel turning at 1200 rev/min (125.7 rad/s) constant angular velocity
has a radius of 2.5 cm (0.025 m). As it turns, a string is to be wound onto its
rim. How much string (in meters) will be wrapped in 10 seconds (i.e. how high
will it lift the weight)?
15.7 m
11. A race car is on a circular track with a radius of 0.30 km (300 m). The driver
accelerates from rest with a constant angular acceleration () of 4.5 x 10^-3 rad/s .
The driver constantly accelerates as he drives one lap around the track. Mass of
race car 1545kg
(a) How long does it take for the driver to make one lap around the track?
(b) what is the centripetal force at the top speed? There is no top speed, the driver
is accelerating at a constant angular acceleration.

 15.CDs are not only used in the music industry, but are also utilized in the
computer industry. The information of a huge library can be stored on a single
CD. The CD spins around and information is read or written to it as it rotates.
One CDROM drive I saw mentions it has a stated angular velocity of 8560
rpm. If the CD starts from rest, what is the angular acceleration if it takes 120
milliseconds (0.12 seconds) for the CD to reach this angular velocity?
7470 rad/s^2

16. Starting from rest, the tub of a washing machine reaches an angular speed of

(b) What angular displacement (in radians and rotations) does the tub rotate
through as it reaches this angular velocity? 542 rad/s
