Bud · Answer 1

In one second it turns 200 / 60 = 3 1/3 revolutions. Since one revolution is 360°, the answer is 6 2/3 π radians.

Answer: 20.94 rad/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

200 rpm means 200 revolutions per min.

1 min = 60 sec

1 rev = 2pi

200 rev/min * (1min/60sec) * (2pi/1rev)

= 20.94 rad/sec
