Question

How do you calculate translational speed?

Answer 1

Answer:

Translational motion is the the motion of a bullet fired from a gun . An object has a rectilinear motion when it moves along a straight line. At any time, t, the object occupies a position along the line

To calculate the speed of the rotational motion, angular speed arises. Angular Speed Formula computes the distance covered by the body in terms of revolutions or rotations to the time taken. It is represented by ω and is given as Distance traveled is in terms of angle θ is measured in radians and time taken in seconds.

Answer 2

• Translational motion can be defined as , An object having a rectilinear motion when it moves along a straight line with respect to time . (t ) along the line .

• There is a strong analogy between rotational motion and standard translational motion.

• To calculate the speed of the rotational motion, angular speed arises. Angular Speed Formula computes the distance covered by the body in terms of revolutions or rotations to the time taken.

• It is represented by ω and is given as Distance traveled is in terms of angle θ is measured in radians and time taken in seconds

• The formula for translational speed $V_{cm} = R$ω

• Here, R = distance between the point of contact and axis of rotation .

• ω =  rotational or angular speed.

• We need to the speed of the rotational motion, angular speed arises .

• $V_{cm}$ = translational speed of the center of mass
