Answer

475\text{475}

Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Convert angular velocities from revolutions per minute (rpm) to revolutions per second (rps).

    Initial angular velocity (ωi\omega_i):

    ωi=1200 rpm=1200 revolutions60 seconds=20 rps\omega_i = 1200 \text{ rpm} = \frac{1200 \text{ revolutions}}{60 \text{ seconds}} = 20 \text{ rps}

    Final angular velocity (ωf\omega_f):

    ωf=4500 rpm=4500 revolutions60 seconds=75 rps\omega_f = 4500 \text{ rpm} = \frac{4500 \text{ revolutions}}{60 \text{ seconds}} = 75 \text{ rps}

    The time taken (tt) is 10 s10 \text{ s}.

  2. Calculate the total angular displacement (θ\theta) using the average angular velocity.

    For constant angular acceleration, the total angular displacement can be found using the formula:

    θ=(ωi+ωf2)t\theta = \left(\frac{\omega_i + \omega_f}{2}\right) t

    Substitute the values:

    θ=(20 rps+75 rps2)×10 s\theta = \left(\frac{20 \text{ rps} + 75 \text{ rps}}{2}\right) \times 10 \text{ s} θ=(95 rps2)×10 s\theta = \left(\frac{95 \text{ rps}}{2}\right) \times 10 \text{ s} θ=47.5 rps×10 s\theta = 47.5 \text{ rps} \times 10 \text{ s} θ=475 revolutions\theta = 475 \text{ revolutions}

    The number of revolutions is 475\text{475}.
