Q.
A wheel has angular acceleration of 3.0 rad/sec² and an initial angular speed of 2.00 rad/sec. In a time of 2 sec it has rotated through an angle (in radian) of
A) 10
B) 12
C) 4
D) 6
Explanation
[Solution from source] θ = ω₀t + ½αt² = 2.0 × 2 + ½ × 3.0 × 4 = 4 + 6 = 10 rad. 4 rad counts only the initial-speed term. Answer (1).
