- Object A is travelling along a circle of radius 2, and Object B is travelling along a circle of radius 5. The object have the same angular speed. Do the objects have the same linear speed? If not, which object has the greater linear speed?arrow_forwardAs illustrated in the accompanying figure, suppose that a rod with one end fixed at the pole of a polar coordinate system rotates counterclockwise at the constant rate of 1 rad/s. At time t = 0 a bugon the rodis 10 mm from the pole and is moving outward along the rod at the constant speed of 2 mm/s.(a) Find an equation of the form r = f(θ)forthe path of motion of the bug,assuming that θ = 0when t = 0.(b) Find the distance the bug travels along the path in part (a) during the first 5 s.Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a millimeter.arrow_forwardAlex is measuring the time-averaged velocity components in a pump using a laser Doppler velocimeter (LDV). Since the laser beams are aligned with the radial and tangential directions of the pump, he measures the ur and u? com ponents of velocity. At r = 5.20 in and ? = 30.0°, ur = 2.06 ft/s and u? = 4.66 ft/s. Unfortunately, the data analysis program requires input in Cartesian coordinates (x, y) in feet and (u, ?) in ft/s. Help Alex transform his data into Cartesian coordinates. Specifically, calculate x, y, u, and ? at the given data point.arrow_forward

Hint: Recall that sin2(?) + cos2(?) = 1.arrow_forwardA A jet airliner is flying at a constant altitude of 10,000 m above sea level as it approaches a Pacific island. The aircraft comes within the direct line of sight of a radar station located on the island, and the radar indicates the initial angle between sea level and its line of sight to the aircraft is 30°. How fast (in kilometers per hour) is the aircraft approaching the island when first detected by the radar instrument if it is turning upward (counterclockwise) at the 1 deg rate of in order to keep the aircraft 3 s within its direct line of sight?
