Rotation with Constant Angular Acceleration (Problem 43)
A circular disk of radius 10 cm has a constant angular acceleration of 1.0rad/s2; at t=0 its angular velocity is 2.0 rad/s. (a) Determine the disk’s angular velocity at t=5.0s. (b) What is the angle it has rotated through during this time? (c) What is the tangential acceleration of a point on the disk at t=5.0s? Select the answer to part (a).
