While sitting in physics class one day, you begin to ponder the workings of the analog clock on the classroom wall. You notice as the hands sweep in a continuous motion that there are exactly t = 55 minutes left in class. Through what angle (in radians) will the second hand turn before the end of class?

Figure P3.31 represents the total acceleration of a particle moving clockwise in a circle of radius 2.50 m at a certain instant of time. For that instant, find (a) the radial acceleration of the particle, (b) the speed of the particle, and (c) its tangential acceleration.
The second hand of a large clock has a radial acceleration of 0.001 m/s?, how far is the point from the axis of rotation of the second hand? What is the magnitude of the speed of the second hand? (Clue: Use T= 60minutes).
The Ferris wheel in the figure, which rotates counterclockwise, is just starting up. At a given instant, a passenger on the rim of the wheel and passing through the lowest point of his circular motion is moving at 3.00 m/sm/s and is gaining speed at a rate of 0.500 m/s2m/s2. 1.Find the magnitude of the passenger's acceleration at this instant in m/s^2 2.Find the direction of the passenger's acceleration at this instant. θ=___∘ to the right of vertical
An ice skater is executing a figure-eight, consisting of two identically shaped, tangent circular paths. Throughout the first loop, she increases her speed uniformly, and during the second loop she moves at a constant speed. When the ice skater travels during the first loop, the acceleration vector is not directed towards the center, whereas when the ice skater travels in the second loop, the acceleration vector is directed toward the center. Is this true or false?
A small object with mass 0.200 kg moves with constant speed in a vertical circle of radius 0.500 m. It takes the object 0.100 s to complete one revolution. As the object passes through the lowest point of its motion, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object?

A pursue at radius 2.00 m and a wallet at radius 3.00 m travel in uniform circular motion on the floor of a merry-go-round as the ride turns. They are on the same radial line. At one instant, the acceleration of the pursue is (2.00 m/s^2)i + (4.00 m/s^2)j. At the instant and in unit-vector notation, what is the acceleration of the wallet?
A particle is in uniform circular motion about the origin of an xy coordinate system, moving clockwise with a period of 8.40 s. At one instant, its position vector (from the origin) is r→=(3.70m)î-(4.50m)ĵ. At that instant, what is its velocity in unit-vector notation?
A car initially traveling eastward turns north by traveling in a circular path at uniform speed as shown in Figure P7.15. The length of the arc ABC is 235 m, and the car completes the turn in 36.0 s. (a) Determine the cars speed. (b) What is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration when the car is at point B? Figure P7.15
A ball swings counterclockwise in a vertical circle at the end of a rope 1.50 m long. When the ball is 36.9° past the lowest point on its way up, its resultant acceleration is a = (-22.5i + 20.2j) m/s2 , where i is the unit vector along the horizontal direction (you can treat it as pointing to the right), and j is the unit vector along the vertical direction (you can treat it as pointing upward). For that instant, (i) determine the magnitude of its centripetal acceleration in m/s2 (ii) determine the speed of the ball in in m/s (iii) determine the velocity of the ball in m/s, i and j.
