Calculating Angular Velocity at the End of a Time Interval

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the angular velocity at the end of a 2.0-second interval for a wheel with a constant angular acceleration of 2.0 rad/s², the kinematic equation θf = θi + ωi*t + 0.5*α*t² is applied. The wheel completes 2.165 revolutions, which converts to approximately 13.6 radians. Using the known values, the initial angular velocity (ωi) is assumed to be zero, leading to the calculation of final angular velocity (ωf). The calculated values are significantly higher than the provided answer options, indicating a potential error in the initial assumptions or calculations. The discussion emphasizes the need for clarity in the application of kinematic equations to solve for angular velocity accurately.

Homework Statement


A wheel rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 2.0 rad/s2 turns through 2.165 revolutions during a 2.0 s time interval. What is the angular velocity at the end of this time interval?


Homework Equations


I was using the kinematic Equations
\thetaf = \thetai + \omegait + 0.5\alphat2

Am i doing something wrong?
The answers that I can choose are, 9.7 rad/s, 9.1 rad/s, 9.3 rad/s, 9.5 rad/s, 8.8 rad/s

All the answers I get are way larger

I must be doing something obviously wrong but I just can't see it.

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Struggling to make relation between elastic force and height'
Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...
