Problem
An athlete swings a hammer of length 1.2m in a horizontal circle. The hammer completes 3.0 full revolutions in 1.5s.
(i) Find the time for one revolution of the hammer.
(ii) Calculate the speed of the hammer.
(iii) How many revolutions will the hammer make in the next 5.0s if the speed remains the same?
(iv) Determine the distance travelled by the hammer along the circular path during those 5.0s.
