Homework Statement
There is a wheel with spokes rotating on a horizontal axis about its center.
the Wheel has a w(omega) of 6∏ and a radius of .04meters
there is a bug on one of the spokes at exactly 1/2 radius or .02meters. the bug has a mass of .005kg.
Homework Equations
not really sure which equations to use, but here are a bunch that will most likely be helpful
Icm of rod = 1/3mL^2
Icm of wheel = Mr^2
v=w/r
a=σ(alpha)*r
The Attempt at a Solution
The questions are
A) find the angular speed of the bug
B) find the linear speed of the bug
these are just the first couple questions of many but any help would be appreciated.
