Capitolo 2, Problema 127
Solve each problem. See Example 6. Rotating Pulley A pulley rotates through 75° in 1 min. How many rotations does the pulley make in 1 hr?
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the problem: The pulley rotates through an angle of 75° in 1 minute, and we need to find how many full rotations it makes in 1 hour.
Recall that one full rotation corresponds to an angle of 360°. To find the number of rotations, we will convert the total angle rotated in 1 hour into the number of full 360° rotations.
Calculate the total angle rotated in 1 hour. Since 1 hour = 60 minutes, multiply the angle rotated per minute by 60: \(\text{Total angle} = 75^\circ \times 60\).
Find the number of full rotations by dividing the total angle rotated in 1 hour by 360°: \(\text{Number of rotations} = \frac{\text{Total angle}}{360^\circ}\).
Simplify the expression to get the number of rotations the pulley makes in 1 hour.

Relationship Between Angular Displacement and Rotations
Angular displacement refers to the angle through which an object rotates. One full rotation corresponds to 360°, so the number of rotations can be found by dividing the total angular displacement by 360°.
