A ceiling fan is rotating at 0.70 rev/s. When turned off, it slows uniformly to a stop in 2.9 s.

(a) How many revolutions does it make in this time?
(b)Using the result from part (a), find the number of revolutions the fan must make for its speed to decrease from 0.7 rev/s to 0.35 rev/s.

1 answer

Part A
using formula:

1/2(0+.7)*(174s)=60.9 for first answer
idk the background but thats is the answer......174 is from converting 2.9 to seconds
1 minute=60 seconds
2 minutes= another 60 seconds
.9 minutes=54 seconds
add the numbers up you get 174

for B i have no clue
