What is the angular speed of this bacterial motor

Reference no: EM13655327

Some bacteria are propelled by biologicalmotors that spin hair-like flagella. A typical bacterial motorturning at a constant angular velocity has a radiusof 1.36 x10^-8m, and a tangential speed at the rimof 2.21 x 10^-5m/s.

a) What is the angular speed (the magnitude ofthe angular velocity) of this bacterial motor?
b) How long does it take the motor to make one revolution?
