And this problem, we have a ferris wheel, and your friend is at the top.
00:04
We know that the ferris wheel has an angular velocity of 4 .4 times 10 to the negative 2 radiance per second.
00:14
We also know that they're going to travel for 3 .4 minutes, and we're going around this way counterclockwise.
00:28
I'm going to go ahead and convert the time to seconds, so you multiply by 60, and you should get 2.
00:34
204 seconds, and we want to know what angular distance is this person going to end up after that 3 .4 minutes.
00:45
So we're just going to use the most basic definition of angular velocity.
00:50
So angular velocity equals a distance traveled over a time.
00:58
And since we're going at a constant speed, this is fine to do.
01:03
So we're just going to plug right in.
01:05
So we're solving for our angular distance that we travel.
01:10
So we have angular velocity times time...
