Equations:
vt= 2𝛑r / T
r= vt*T/2𝛑
T= 2𝛑r/vt
Equations:
vt= 2𝛑r / T
r= vt*T/2𝛑
T= 2𝛑r/vt

How fast is a ball traveling in a circle if attached to a 2m string that completes a revolution in 3 seconds?

2

How fast is Lightning McQueen drifting around the race track, if the radius is 80 m and he completes one lap every 26 seconds?

2

What is the length of a string that a ball is attached to if the ball is traveling at 9.2m/s in .04 seconds?

2

What is the radius of a circular path covered by a ball that is traveling at 5.8m/s in 1.7seconds?

2

What is the tangential velocity of Officer Judy Hopps as she was flushed down the toilet with a radius of 0.8m and revolved every 1.2 seconds?

2

What is the period of time for a ball attached to a string to travel at 28m/s in a circle if the string is 1.2m long?

1

As the period increases velocity will- (assume radius is constant)

1

As the radius decreases, the period will- (assume velocity is constant)

2

A figure skater is spinning in a circle with her arms out (0.5m). She completes one spin every 0.2 seconds. What is her velocity?

2

The same skater above now pulls her arms in (radius of 0.12 m). Assuming her velocity will stay the same, what is her period of rotation?
