Answer:
r = 0.5 m
Explanation:
First we find the angular speed of the ball by using its period:
ω = θ/t
For the time period:
ω = angular speed = ?
θ = angular displacement = 2π rad
t = time period = 0.5 s
Therefore,
ω = 2π rad/0.5 s
ω = 12.56 rad/s
Now, for the radius:
v = rω
r = v/ω
where,
v = linear speed = 6.29 m/s
r = radius = ?
r = (6.29 m/s)/(12.56 rad/s)
r = 0.5 m
