A dentist causes the bit of a high-speed drill to accelerate from an angular speed of 1.72 x 10^4 rad/s to an angular speed of 5.42 x 10^4 rad/s. In the process, the bit turns through 1.72 x 10^4 rad. Assuming a constant angular acceleration, how long would it take the bit to reach its maximum speed of 8.42 x 10^4 rad/s, starting from rest?

Answer:

The bit take to reach its maximum speed of 8,42 x10^4 rad/s in an amount of 1.097 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

ω1= 1.72x10^4 rad/sec

ω2= 5.42x10^4 rad/sec

ωmax= 8.42x10^4 rad/sec

θ= 1.72x10^4 rad


\alpha = (w2^(2)-w1^(2)  )/(2*(\theta2 - \theta1))

α=7.67 x10^4 rad/sec²

t= ωmax / α

t= 8.42 x10^4 rad/sec / 7.67 x10^4 rad/sec²

t=1.097 sec
