Determine the angular speed of this bacterial motor

Reference no: EM13540826

Some bacteria are propelled by biological motors that spin hair-like flagella. A typical bacterial motor turning at a constant angular velocity has a radius of 1.31 10-8 m, and a tangential speed at the rim of 2.15 10-5 m/s.

(a) What is the angular speed (the magnitude of the angular velocity) of this bacterial motor?

rad/s

(b) How long does it take the motor to make one revolution?
