Angular Acceleration of a Moving Wheel

[underoathP]

I am having a bit of trouble with the following problem. What should I do to start?

A cyclist starts from rest and pedals so that the wheels make 8.5 revolutions in the first 4.6 s. What is the angular acceleration of the wheels (assumed constant)?
