Answer:
(a) Approximately
.
(b) Approximately
, assuming that this cylinder is rotating along the axis that goes through the center.
Step-by-step explanation:
The unit
stands for "revolutions per minute", where each revolution is
radians.
With an angular velocity of
, this cylinder would turn
radians every minute (
). Thus, the angular velocity of this cylinder would be:
.
A point at the rim of this cylinder would be at a distance of
from the axis of revolution of this cylinder. If the angular velocity of this cylinder is
, the tangential velocity of this point would be:
.
