Question

Starting from rest at t = 0, a wheel undergoes a constant angular acceleration. When t = 2.0 s, the angular velocity of the wheel is 5.0 rad/s. The acceleration continues until t = 20 s, when it abruptly ceases. Through what angle does the wheel rotate in the interval t = 0 to t = 40 s?

Givens:\textbf{Givens:}

Initial angular velocity of the wheel, ωi=0\omega_i=0 rad/s.

Till time t1=20t_1=20 s, the angular acceleration is constant.

At t=2t=2 s, the angular velocity becomes ω=5\omega=5 rad/s.

From t1=20t_1=20 s to t2=40t_2=40 s, the angular acceleration of the wheel is zero.
