	Angular speed		2010-12-03
		From Julie: If the angular speed of a circle is 360 degrees divided by the time it took to rotate, how do I calculate ones that have greater rotations than the amount of time? I mean, you calculate the angular speed of a merry-go-around that spins once every 5 seconds by doing 360degrees/5 sec, but how do you calculate a merry-go-around that has 16 rotations every 4 seconds? Answered by Penny Nom.
	Angular velocity		2010-03-17
		From Lindsay: Determine the angular velocity, in radians per second, of a 14-inch car wheel, if the car is traveling at 60 miles per hour Answered by Harley Weston.
	A dead fly is stuck to a belt that passes over two pulleys		2009-03-21
		From Jules: A dead fly is stuck to a belt that passes over two pulleys 6 inches and 8 inches in radius. Assuming no slippage,how fast is the fly moving when the large pulley (8 inches) makes 21 revolutions per second ? How many revolutions per second does the small pulley make ? How long will it take the dead fly to travel 1 mile ? Answered by Penny Nom.
	A belt drives a pulley		2008-11-03
		From Rebecca: A point on a belt is moving at the rate of 30 ft/sec and the belt drives a pulley at the rate of 200 rpm. What is the radius of the pulley? Answered by Penny Nom.
	The current in a river		2008-06-12
		From Joi: To approximate the speed of the current of a river, a circular paddle wheel with radius 4 feet is lowered into the water. If the current causes the wheel to rotate at a speed of 10 revolutions per minute, what is the speed of the current? Express your answer in miles per hour. Answered by Harley Weston.
	What angle does the tire turn in 60s?		2007-06-04
		From San: An automobile, travelling at 80km/h, is towing a trailer. The wheels of the trailer are 40cm in diameter. Through what angle does the tire turn in 60second? Answered by Stephen La Rocque.
	Angular velocity		2007-05-01
		From Bruce: a tachometer of a Ford Explorer reads 2,100 rpm at 60 mph. Find the equivalent angular velocity in degrees per minute and radians per minute Answered by Stephen La Rocque.
	A beam on a lighthouse		2007-03-28
		From Lisa: A beam on a lighthouse 2000 metres away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline revolves at the rate of 10 pi radians per minute. How fast is the beam of the light moving along the shoreline when it is 500 metres from P? Answered by Stephen La Rocque.
	Pulleys and belts		2006-10-31
		From Lynn: A belt has a linear speed of 32 mph. It is spinning three pulleys. Pulley A has diameter 14 in. radius = 7 inches Pulley B has diameter 26 in. radius = 13 inches Pulley C has radius 3 ft. radius = 36 inches Angular speed in Radians per min for I got Pulley A= .08 rads/min Pulley B= .04 rads/min Pulley C=.01 rads/min How many cm would pulley C travel in 14 seconds? Answered by Penny Nom.

		From Angela: Use absolute values to define the interval or pair of intervals on the real line. <--|--- |--- ]--- |--- |--- |--- [---| ---|--> 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 A car is moving at the rate of 50 miles per hour, and the diameter of its wheels is 2.5 feet. a) Find the number of revolutions per minute that the wheels are rotating. b) Find the angular speed of the wheels in radians per minute. Answered by Harley Weston.
	Angular velocity		2000-05-24
		From Ashley Milliman: The crankshaft of a particular automobile engine has an angular velocity of 1,500 rpm at 30 mph. The crankshaft pulley has a diameter of 10 cm, and it's attached to an air conditioner compressor pulley with a 7 cm diameter and an alternator pulley with a 5 cm diamter At what angular velocities do the compressor and alternator turn? . . .
