A small steel roulette ball rolls around the inside of a 30 cm diameter roulette wheel. It is spun at 150 rpm, but is slows to 60 rpm over an interval of 5.0 s. How many revolutions does the ball make during these 5.0 s?

Solution :

Given

Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm

The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm

The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm

Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60

                                                                      = 90 rpm

Therefore,

90 revolutions in 1 minute

or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times

i.e. 1 min = 90 rev

     60 sec = 90 rev

        1 sec = 90/ 60 rec

         5 sec =

                   = 75 rev

Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.
