    314.16 radians per minute.

    This problem is simply determining if you know what angular velocity is. Because of that, giving you the blade length is a trap. You're not looking for the tip velocity of the fan blades, just the angular velocity. And all you need for that is how fast the blades are spinning. 1 revolution will go through 2Ď€ radians. Since we have 50 rpm, the number of radians is:

    2Ď€ * 50 = 100Ď€ = 100*3.14159 = 314.159 = 314.16 radians per minute.
