Answers
A wheel is subjected to uniform angular acceleration about
its axis. Initially its angular velocity is zero. In the first two
second it rotate through an angle θ1, in the next 2 sec. it
rotates through an angle θ2, find the ratio (θ2 / θ1) = ____
{A} 1 {B} 2 {C} 3 {D} 4
Solution: Answer: {C} 3
θ = ω0t + (1/2)αt2
given ω0 = 0
θ = (1/2)αt2
θ = (1/2)α(2)2 = 2α and
θ1 + θ2 = (1/2)α (2 + 2)2 = 8α
i.e. θ2 = 8α – θ1
θ2 = 6α
hence (θ1 / θ2) = (6α / 2α) = 3
Answer:
i think the wheel is in non uniform motion
