Question Details

If the equation for the displacement of a particle moving on a circular path is given by (θ) =2t³+0.5, where θ is in radians and t in seconds, then the angular velocity of the particle after 2sec from its start is

Options

A

8 rad /sec

B

12 rad /sec

C

24 rad /sec

D

36 rad /sec

Correct Answer :

24 rad /sec

Solution :

To find the angular velocity of the particle, we need to understand the relationship between angular displacement (θ) and angular velocity (ω).

The angular velocity (ω) is defined as the time rate of change of angular displacement. Mathematically, it is the first derivative of the angular displacement with respect to time (t):
ω=dθdt

The given equation for the angular displacement is:
θ(t)=2t3+0.5

Differentiating θ(t) with respect to t using the power rule of differentiation (ddt(tn)=ntn-1), we get:
ω=ddt(2t3+0.5)
ω=2·3t2+0
ω=6t2

Now, we calculate the angular velocity at t=2 seconds:
ω=6·(2)2
ω=6·4
ω=24 rad /sec

Therefore, the angular velocity of the particle after 2 seconds is 24 rad /sec.
