The disk of radius 0.4 m is originally rotating at ωo=4 rad/sec. If it is subjected to a constant angular acceleration of α=5 rad/sec, what is the magnitudes of the normal component of acceleration of a point on the outer surface of the disk (0.4 m from the center) at the instant t=1 sec. a. 32. 4 m/sec^2 b. 81.8m/sec^2 c. 60.33 m/sec2 d. 4.33 m/sec2

Answer:32.4m/
s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data


radius\left ( r\right )=0.4m

Intial angular velocity
\left ( \omega_0\right )=4rad/s

angular acceleration
\left ( \alpha\right )=5rad/
s^2

angular velocity after 1 sec


\omega=
\omega_0+
\alpha*\t


\omega=4+5
\left ( 1\right )


\omega=9rad/s

Velocity of point on the outer surface of disc
\left ( v\right )=
\omega_0*r

v=
9*0.4 m/s=3.6m/s

Normal component of acceleration
\left ( a_c\right )=
(v^2)/(r)


a_c=
(3.6*3.6)/(0.4)=32.4m/
s^2
