When a ceiling fan is switched off, its angular velocity reduces to 50 % of its initial value while it makes 36 rotations. If angular retardation of the fan is uniform, then how many more rotations will it make before coming to rest?
Options
- A18
- B12
- C36
- D48
Correct answer
B. 12
Step-by-step solution
ω 0 2 2 = ω 0 2 - 2 α θ 1 ⇒ 2 α θ 1 = 3 4 ω 0 2 ..........(i) 0 = ω 0 2 2 - 2 α θ 2 ⇒ 2 α θ 2 = ω 0 2 4 .............(ii) from (i) & (ii) θ 1 θ 2 = 3 ⇒ θ 2 = θ 1 3 = 36 3 = 12 r o t a t i o n
