    A rotating wheel changes angular speed from 1800 rpm to 3000 rpm in 20 s. What is the angular acceleration assuming to be uniform?

    A)  \[2\pi \text{ }rad\text{ }{{s}^{-2}}\]

    B)  \[60\pi \text{ }rad\text{ }{{s}^{-2}}\]

    C)  \[40\pi \text{ }rad\text{ }{{s}^{-2}}\]

    D)  \[90\pi \text{ }rad\text{ }{{s}^{-2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     : Here, Initial angular speed of the wheel, \[{{\omega }_{0}}=1800\times \frac{2\pi }{60}\,rad\,\,{{s}^{-1}}=60\pi \,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\] Final angular speed of the wheel,         \[\omega =3000\times \frac{2\pi }{60}\,\,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}=100\pi \,rad\,{{s}^{-1}}\] Time during which this change of speed takes place, \[t=20s\] Let a be angular acceleration of the wheel. As  \[\omega ={{\omega }_{0}}+\alpha t\] \[\therefore \] \[\alpha =\frac{\omega -{{\omega }_{0}}}{t}=\frac{100\pi -60\pi }{20}\,rad\,{{s}^{-2}}\] \[=2\pi \,rad\,{{s}^{-2}}\]
