Answer :

Answer:

the distance in meters traveled by a point outside the rim is 157.1 m

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the disk, r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

angular speed of the disk, ω = 100 rpm

time of motion, t = 30 s

The distance in meters traveled by a point outside the rim is calculated as follows;

[tex]\theta = \omega t\\\\\theta = (100 \frac{rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} \times \frac{1\min}{60 s} ) \times (30 s)\\\\\theta = 100 \pi \ rad\\\\d = \theta r\\\\d = 100\pi \ \times \ 0.5m\\\\d = 50 \pi \ m = 157.1 \ m[/tex]

Therefore, the distance in meters traveled by a point outside the rim is 157.1 m
