Angular Acceleration: Find Angle in 2 Seconds

[omgitsmonica]

Homework Statement

A wheel accelerates with constant angular acceleration of 6 rad/2². If the initial angular velocity is 6 rad/s. what is the angle in degrees that the wheel rotates through in 2 seconds?

Homework Equations

360 degrees = 2pi radians

The Attempt at a Solution

6*2pi = 37.699

Can it really be that simple?

No. For one thing, the wheel is accelerating. That is important, you can't just ignore it. Make a list of what you know, and apply the appropriate equation to find what you don't know.
