At t = 0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 24.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 30 rads2 until a circuit breaker trips at t = 2.00 s. From then on, it turns through 432 rad as it coasts to a stop at constant angular acceleration. (a) Through what total angle did the wheel turn between t = 0 and the time it stopped? (b) At what time did it stop? (c) What was its acceleration as it slowed down?

b) We will take the interval from when the circuit breaker trips until th wheel comes to a stop
ω0z the wheel will stop at the end
θθ0=12)ω0z+ωz)t
432=12(84+0)t
t=10.3 s
Adding t of the first interval to t of the second interval:
tT=2+10.3
=12.3 s
The wheel will stop after 12.3 s

a) In order to calculate the total angle, we will divide the entire interval from t=0 to the wheel stops into two intervals. From t=0 to t=2 s θθ0=12(ω0+ωz) We will calulate ωz first: ωz=ω0z+αz ωz=24+(30)(2) ωz=84 rad/s Substitute ωz into equation θθ0=12(ω0z+ωz) θθ0=12(24+84)(2) θθ0=108 rad We can calculate it directly from the following equation: θθ0=w0zt+12azt2 θθ0=(24)(2)+12(30)(2)2 θθ0=108 rad Thus, the total angle the wheel turned between t=0 and the time it stopped: θT=108+432 540 rad

c) We will take the interval from when the circuit breaker trips untill the wheel comes to a stop ω0z=84 rad/s

ωz=0 

ωz=ω0z+azt

0=84+aa(10.3)

az=8.16 rad/s2
