Answer:

the angular speed in rad /s is 1675.516 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below;

The Tachometer's reading is

= 16000 rpm

= 266.67 rps

Now

angular speed ,w = 2 ×
\pi ×freq

= 2 × 3.14 × 266.67

= 1675.516 rad/s

Hence, the angular speed in rad /s is 1675.516 rad/s

The same is to be considered by applying the above formula so that the correct speed could arrive
