    What Is the Instantaneous Speed of the Point of Contact on a Rolling Wheel?

    okay... so i might need to multiply it by 2*3.1426 or something right?

    What Is the Instantaneous Speed of the Point of Contact on a Rolling Wheel?

    Homework Statement A 30cm diameter wheel rolls without slipping at 120rpm. The point of contact with the ground has an instantaneous speed of: a-5.2mm/s b-1.04cm/s c-2.6 m/s d-zero Homework Equations I'm not really sure about my final answer but i think is d-zero because i have a...

    Average acceleration and velocity problem

    Got it! so i got the derivative v=8t-9t^2 and then i got -20 after i pluged in my v1 and v2 then divided it by two and that gave me -10m/s^2! (right answer) Thanks for your help! :biggrin:

    Average acceleration and velocity problem

    the instantaneus velocitiy formula is V= dx/dt but I still need to know what to do with the given function... i don't know how to use the given funtion to get the answer. If I was given the v1 and v2 in m/s i would just take the difference of v1 and v2 divide it by the time but that functions...

    Average acceleration and velocity problem

    Homework Statement Okay here's the problem, The coordinate of an object is given as a function of time by x = 4t^2 - 3t^3, where v is in m/s and t is in seconds. Its average acceleration over the interval form t = 0 to t = 2 I wast told the answer is -10m/s^2 but i can't figure out how...
