An automobile tire has a radius of 0.380 m, and its center moves forward with a linear speed of v = 19.0 m/s.

(a) Determine the angular speed of the wheel. (Assume that there is no slipping of the surfaces in contact during the rolling motion.)
rad/s

1 answer

Relative to the center, the bottom of the wheel has v=19m/s, right?

angular speed= tangential speed/radius
