Since 1 radian of angle corresponds to the distance along the arc which is equal to the radius, if the radius of the circle is 40 meters then a 1 radian angle would correspond to a distance of 40 meters along the arc.

An angle of 3 radians would correspond to a distance of 3 * 40 meters = 120 meters along the arc. Each radian corresponds to a distance of 40 meters along the arc.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

1 radian is equal to the length of the radius= 40m

For 3 radians, you would multiply by 3 to get 40m*3=120m

`q002. On a circle of radius 40 meters, how far would you have to walk to go all the way around the circle, and through how many radians of angle would you therefore travel? Through how many radians would you travel if you walked halfway around the circle? Through how many radians would you travel if you walked a quarter of the way around the circle?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Perimeter= 2pi *r

=2*40*pi=80pi

Half a circle= 40m*.5=20m

2*20m*pi=40pi

The circumference of a circle is the product of `pi and its diameter, or in terms of the radius r, which is half the diameter, C = 2 `pi r. The circumference of this circle is therefore 2 `pi * 40 meters = 80 `pi meters.

This distance can be left in this form, which is exact, or if appropriate this distance can be approximated as 80 * 3.14 meters = 251 meters (approx).

The exact distance 2 `pi * 40 meters is 2 `pi times the radius of the circle, so it corresponds to 2 `pi radians of arc.

Half the arc of the circle would correspond to a distance of half the circumference, or to 1/2 ( 80 `pi meters) = 40 `pi meters. This is `pi times the radius so corresponds to `pi radians of angle.

A quarter of an arc would correspond to half the preceding angle, or `pi/2 radians.

3 radians along the arc would correspond to an arc distance of 3 times the radius, or 3 * 6 meters, or 18 meters.

`pi / 6 radians would correspond to `pi / 6 times the radius, or `pi / 6 * 6 meters = `pi meters.

4 `pi / 3 radians would correspond to 4 `pi / 3 * 6 meters = 8 `pi meters.

`q009. If you know the speed of an object along the arc of a circle and you know the radius of the circle, how do you find the angular speed of the object in radians/second?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Take the speed and divide by the radius to get the angular speed in radians/second

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:06:59

The speed of the object is the distance it travels along the arc per unit of time. The angular velocity is the number of radians through which the object travels per unit of time. The distance traveled and the number radians are related by the fact that the distance is equal to the number of radians multiplied by the radius. So if the distance traveled in a unit of time is divided by the radius, we get the number of radians in a unit of time. So the angular speed is found by dividing the speed along the arc by the radius.

`q010. We usually let `d`theta stand for the anglular displacement in radians between two points on the arc of the circle. We usually let `omega stand for the angular velocity in radians / second. We let `ds stand for the distance traveled along the arc of a circle, and we let r stand for the radius of the circle. If we know the radius r and the arc distance `ds, what is the anglular displacement `d`theta, in radians?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Take the distance traveled(`ds) and divide by r(radius)

confidence assessment: 1

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:11:35

Since an angular displacement of 1 radian corresponds to an arc distance equal to the radius, the anglular displacement `theta in radians is equal to the number of radii in the arc distance `ds. This quantity is easily found by dividing the arc distance by the radius. Thus

`d`theta = `ds / r.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

An angular displacemetn of 1 radian= arc distance equal to the radius

the angular displacement `d`theta = number of radii in the arc distance `ds

`d`theta=`ds/r

`q011. If we know the radius r of a circle and the angular velocity `omega, how do we find the velocity v of the object as it moves around the arc of the circle?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Multiply the `omega(in radians/ sec) by the radius(in m) to get the velocity in m/s

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:15:18

The angular velocity is the number of radians per second. The velocity is the distance traveled per second along the arc. Since an angular displacement of 1 radian corresponds to an arc distance equal to the radius, if we multiply the number of radians per second by the radius we get the distance traveled per second. Thus

v = `omega * r.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

velocity=`omega*r

`q012. We can change an angle in degrees to radians, or vice versa, by recalling that a complete circle consists of 360 degrees or 2 `pi radians. A half-circle is 180 degrees or `pi radians, so 180 degrees = `pi radians. How many radians does it take to make 30 degrees, how many to make 45 degrees, and how many to make 60 degrees?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

360degrees=2 pi radians

180degrees=pi radians

30deg=1/6 pi radians

45deg=1/4 pi radians

60deg=1/3 pi radians

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:18:46

30 degrees is 1/6 of 180 degrees and therefore corresponds to 1/6 * `pi radians, usually written as `pi/6 radians.

45 degrees is 1/4 of 180 degrees and therefore corresponds to 1/4 * `pi radians, or `pi/4 radians.

60 degrees is 1/3 of 180 degrees and therefore corresponds to 1/3 * `pi radians, or `pi/3 radians.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

1/6 pi radians= pi/6 radians

1/4 pi radians=pi/4 raidans

1/3pi radians=pi/3 radians

`q013. Since 180 deg = `pi rad, we can convert an angle from degrees to radians or vice versa if we multiply the angle by either `pi rad / (180 deg) or by 180 deg / (`pi rad). Use this idea to formally convert 30 deg, 45 deg and 60 deg to radians.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

30deg *pi rad/180 deg= pi/6 radians

45 deg*pi rad/180 deg= pi/4 radians

60 deg * pi rad/180 deg= pi/3 radians

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:21:03

To convert 30 degrees to radians, we multiply by the rad / deg conversion factor, obtaining

30 deg * ( `pi rad / 180 deg) = (30 deg / (180 deg) ) * `pi rad = 1/6 * `pi rad = pi/6 rad.

To convert 45 degrees to radians we use the same strategy:

{}45 deg * (`pi rad / 180 deg) = ( 45 deg / ( 180 deg) ) * `pi rad = 1/4 * `pi rad = `pi/4 rad.

To convert 60 degrees:

60 deg * (`pi rad / 180 deg) = ( 60 deg / ( 180 deg) ) * `pi rad = 1/3 * `pi rad = `pi/3 rad.

`q014. Convert 50 deg and 78 deg to radians.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

50 deg * pi rad/180 deg= 5 pi/ 18 radians

78 deg * pi rad/ 180 deg=39 pi/ 90 radians

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:24:04

50 deg * (`pi rad / 180 deg) = ( 50 deg / ( 180 deg) ) * `pi rad = 5/18 * `pi rad = (5 `pi/ 18) rad.

78 deg * (`pi rad / 180 deg) = ( 78 deg / ( 180 deg) ) * `pi rad = 78/180 * `pi rad = (13 `pi/ 30) rad.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

`q015. Convert (14 `pi / 9) rad to degrees.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

14 pi/ 9 radians * 180 deg/ pi rad= 280 degrees

confidence assessment: 2

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

23:25:34

Since the angle is given radians, we need to multiply by deg / rad to get the angle in degrees.

(14 `pi / 9) rad * ( 180 deg / (`pi rad)) = ( 14 `pi / 9 ) * (180 / `pi ) deg = ( 14 * 180 / 9) * (`pi / `pi) deg = 14 * 20 deg = 280 deg.
