Answer:
Angular velocity
78.5 
The value of liner speed of a point on the tip of the fan blade V = 16
Explanation:
Given data
N = 750 R.P.M
D = 16 in = 0.4064 m
R = 0.2032 m
Angular velocity of a fan blade is given by
Put all the values in above formula we get
The linear speed of a point on the tip of the fan blade is given by
V = R
V = 0.2032 × 78.5
V = 16
This is the value of liner speed.
