AI Thread Summary
To convert revolutions to radians per second, the formula involves multiplying the number of revolutions by 2π and dividing by the time in seconds. In this case, 1.13 revolutions in 2.08 seconds can be calculated as (1.13 rev / 2.08 s) * 2π rad. This results in the equation (1.13 * 2π) / 2.08 rad/s. Understanding that 1 revolution equals 2π radians is crucial for this conversion. The final result provides the angular velocity in radians per second.

Hello I have a question about converting rev to rad/s.


If i had 1.13 revolutions for every 2.08s, how do I convert that into rad/s?

1.13rev/2.08s * 2pi ?


Thank you for you help.

1 \ \mbox{rev}=2\pi \ \mbox{rad} is all u need to know.

I do not quite understand 1 rev = 2pi rad. I have 1.13 rev per 2.08 seconds. So would 1.13/2.08 = rev? and then take that and multiply 2pi?
 
\frac{1.13 \ \mbox{rev}}{2.08 \ \mbox{s}}=\frac{1.13\cdot 2\pi \ \mbox{rad}}{2.08 \ \mbox{s}}=\frac{1.13\cdot 2\pi}{2.08} \cdot \frac{\mbox{rad}}{\mbox{s}}

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
