In a Laundromat, during the spin-dry cycle of a washer, the
rotating tub goes from rest to its maximum angular speed of 8.70
rev/s in 6.80 s. You lift the lid of the washer the instant the
angular speed reaches the maximum value, and notice that the tub
decelerates and comes to a stop in 13.5 s. Assuming that the tub
rotates with constant angular acceleration while it is starting and
stopping, determine the total number of revolutions undergone by
the tub during this entire time interval.
