Homework Statement


An airplane propeller is rotating at 1900 rev/min. Compute the propellers angular velocity.

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution


I know 1rev/min= 2pi/60 rad/s so i multiplies 2pi by 1900 and got my answer to be 3800pi/60 rad/s but idk if that's correct? someone please check.

yes, it is right.
Just maybe don't leave it as 3800pi/60, but compute the actual value.
(But I'm sure you were going to do it anyway)
