Question

A spot light S rotates in a horizontal plane with a constant angular velocity of 0.1 red /s The spot of light ? P move along the wall at a distance 3 m. What of the velocity spot P when &#952; = 45o?

Accepted Answer

Let x is the distance of point P from O, the form figure
tan φ = or x = h tan φ
⇒ = h sec² φ
⇒ v = h sec² φω
So putting values
h = 3, φ = 180 - (90 + 45) = 45^o
we get v = × 0.1 = 0.6 m/s
