MCQ
A wheel having a diameter of 3 m starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to an angular velocity of 210 r.p.m. in 5 seconds. Angular acceleration of the wheel is
  • $4.4 rad s ^{-2}$
  • B
    $3.3 rad s ^{-2}$
  • C
    $2.2 rad s ^{-2}$
  • D
    $1.1 rad s ^{-2}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$4.4 rad s ^{-2}$
(A)
$n _1=0, n _2=210$ r.p.m. $=\frac{210}{60}$ r.p.s.
$d \omega=2 \pi\left( n _2- n _1\right)=2 \pi\left(\frac{210}{60}-0\right)=7 \pi rad / s$
$\alpha=\frac{ d \omega}{ dt }=\frac{2 \pi \times 210}{60 \times 5}=4.4 rad / s ^2$
