Problem

Use the formula $s=r \omega t$ to find the value of the missing variable.
$\omega=\frac{\pi}{2}$ radians per sec, $r=8 \mathrm{~cm}, t=6 \mathrm{sec}$
\[
\mathrm{s}=\square \mathrm{cm}
\]
(Type an answer, using $\pi$.)

Final Answer: \(\boxed{75.40 cm}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given that the formula for the arc length of a circle is \(s = r \omega t\), where \(r\) is the radius, \(\omega\) is the angular velocity, and \(t\) is the time.

Step 2 :Substitute the given values into the formula: \(r = 8 cm\), \(\omega = \frac{\pi}{2} radians/sec\), and \(t = 6 sec\).

Step 3 :Calculate the arc length: \(s = 8 cm * \frac{\pi}{2} radians/sec * 6 sec\).

Step 4 :Simplify to find that \(s \approx 75.40 cm\).

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{75.40 cm}\)
