Answer

a) $T=5\times10^{-5}s$ b) $f=2\times10^4Hz$ c) $\omega=1.26\times10^5rad/s$

Work Step by Step

a) The period of the rotational motion, or the time the fan blades make one revolution is $$T=\frac{50\times10^{-3}s}{10^3rev}=5\times10^{-5}s$$ b) The frequency of the motion is $$f=\frac{1}{T}=2\times10^4Hz$$ c) The angular frequency of the blades is $$\omega=\frac{2\pi }{T}=1.26\times10^5rad/s$$
