You are standing next to a table and looking down on a record player sitting on the table. Take the spindle (axis of rotation) to be the center of your coordinate system and the y axis to be perpendicular to the side of the player you are standing next to. Long-playing records revolve 33(1/3) times per minute. You put a small blob of clay at the edge of a record that has a radius of 0.15 m, positioning the clay such that it is at its greatest value of y at t = 0. Equation of motion for the y component of the clay's position: y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

Required:
a. What is the rotational speed of the clay?
b. Determine the value of A in the equation of motion.
c. Determine the value of ϕi in the equation of motion. Suppose that −π<ϕi≤π

a) the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b) the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c) the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

Explanation:

 Given that;

Revolution per minute rpm = 33( 1/3) =  100/3

The frequency f = 100 / 3(60) = 0.55 Hz

a)

Rotational speed W = 2πf

we substitute

W = 2π × 0.55

W = 3.45 rad/s

Therefore, the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b)

given equation; y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

given that radius = 0.15 m

y(t)=(0.2)sin(ωt+ϕi)

Therefore, the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c)

since y(t) has the maximum value at t =0

so at t=0

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(ϕi)

this will give maximum value when ϕi = 90°

so

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(90°)

= 0.15

hence, the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

your answer is yx
