A wheel rotates with a constant angular acceleration of 3.6 r a d / s 2 . If angular velocity of the wheel is 4.0 rad/s at time t 0 = 0, what angle does the wheel rotate in 1 s? What will be its angular velocity at t=1 s?
A) θ = 5.8 r a d , ω = 0.4 r a d / s
B) θ = 2.2 r a d , ω = 0.4 r a d / s
C) θ = 5.8 r a d , ω = 7.6 r a d / s
D) θ = 2.2 r a d , ω = 7.6 r a d / s

The correct answer is C: θ = 5.8 r a d , ω = 7.6 r a d / s
Given,
Angular acceleration α = 3.6 r a d / s 2
Angular velocity of wheel at t O = O , ω O = 4.0 r a d / s
Angle rotated in 1 second from eq. θ = ω O t + 1 2 α t 2
θ = 4 ( r a d / s ) × 1 ( s ) + 1 2 × ( 3.6 r a d / s 2 ) × 1 × ( s ) 2
θ = 5.8 rad
From eqn. ω = ω O + α t, angular velocity at t=1 s
ω = 4 ( r a d / s ) + 3.6 ( r a d / s 2 ) × 1 ( s )
ω = 7.6 r a d / s
