(a) What angle in radians is subtended by an arc 1.50 m long on the circumference of a circle of radius 2.50 m? What is this angle in degrees? (b) An arc 14.0 cm long on the circumference of a circle subtends an angle of 128°. What is the radius of the circle? (c) The angle between two radii of a circle with radius 1.50 m is 0.700 rad. What length of arc is intercepted on the circumference of the circle by the two radii?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The angle in radian and in degree is 0.6 rad, and 34.38°, respectively.
  2. The radius is 0.06267 m.
  3. The arc length is 1.05 m.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The first arc length isla=1.5m .

The first radius is ra=2.5m.

02

Concept/Significance of angular velocity and acceleration

Angular velocity is the velocity by which a particle is moving in a circular path, and change in angular velocity with respect to time is angular acceleration.

03

Determine the angle in radians and degree

The equation of arc length is given by,

l=α.r

Here, l is arc length, is angle, r and is radius.

Find the angle for the first case as follows.

la=αa.raαa=lara=1.5m2.5m=0.6rad

Calculate the angle in degree.

αa=0.6rad180°πrad=34.38°

Therefore, the angle in radian and in degree is 0.6 rad, and34.38° , respectively.

04

Determine the radius of the circle(b)

The second arc length is lb=0.14m.

The angle is αb=128°.

From equation (1), find the radius.

rb=lbαb=0.14m128°=0.14m3245πrad=0.06267m

Therefore, the radius is 0.06267 m .

05

Determine the length of arc(c)

The radius is rc=1.50m.

The angle is 0.700 rad.

From equation (1), find the arc length.

lc=αc.rc=1.5m0.700rad=1.05m

Therefore, the arc length is 1.05 m.
