Answer

Please see the work below.

Work Step by Step

We know that $\omega=\frac{2\pi \frac{rad}{s}}{3600s}=0.001745\frac{rad}{s}$ $r=7.5cm=0.075m$ $v=r\omega$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v=(0.075)(0.001745\frac{rad}{s})=1.3\times 10^{-4}\frac{m}{s}$ We also know that $a=\frac{v^2}{r}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $a=\frac{1.3\times 10^{-4}}{0.075}$ $a=2.28\times 10^{-7}\frac{m}{s^2}$
