\normalsize We know that the rotational kinematic equations that describe the relationship among the rotational angle θ\color{#c34632}\theta, the final angular velocity ω\color{#c34632}\omega, the initial angular velocity ωo\color{#c34632}\omega_o, time t\color{#c34632}t and the angular acceleration α\color{#c34632}\alpha are given by:

ω=ωo+αtω2=ωo2+2αθ\begin{gather*} \omega = \omega_o + \alpha t \tag{1}\\\\ \omega^2 = \omega_o^2 + 2\alpha \theta\tag{2} \end{gather*}
