Question 1

Since omega = 2pi/T (T=period) how do you find angular velocity if given frequency?

Answer 1

f=1/T so since W=2pi * 1/T
W=2pi/f

Question 2

Describe velocity and a in centripetal motion.

Answer 2

Linear speed (may) stay the same. BUT angular speed changes (???)
The DIRECTION CHANGES ALL THE TOME SO THERE IS ANGULAR ACCELERATION TOWARDS THE CENTER
