1. A particle moves in a circle 2.50 m in radius. Through what angle in radians does it rotate if it moves through an arc length of 3.50 m? What is this angle in degrees?

1. A centrifuge in a medical laboratory is rotating at an angular speed of 3600 rev/min. When switched off, it rotates 50.0 times before coming to rest. Find the constant angular deceleration of the centrifuge.

1. An airliner arrives at the terminal, and the engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angular velocity of 2000 rad/s. The engine's rotation slows with an angular acceleration of magnitude 80.0 rad/s². (a)Determine the angular velocity after 10.0 s. (b) How long does it take the rotor to come to rest?
