A circular disk of radius 2.0 m rotates, starting from rest, with a constant angular acceleration of 20.0 rad/s2. What is the tangential acceleration of a point on the edge of the disk at the instant that its angular speed is 1.0 rev/s?a. 40 m/s2. b. 79 m/s2.
c. zero m/s2.
d. 120 m/s2.
e. 110 m/s2.

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of a circular disk, r = 2 m

Angular acceleration,

We need to find the tangential acceleration of a point on the edge of the disk at the instant that its angular speed is 1.0 rev/s.

Let a is the tangential acceleration. The relation between the angular acceleration and tengential acceleration. Let it is a.

So, the tangential acceleration is .

the bal will not change its velocity.
