# Not calc based! tangential and angular acceleration

## Homework Statement

a disk rotates with constant angular accel. the initial angular speed of the disc is 2pie rad/s. After the disk rotates through 10pie rad, the ang speed is 7pie rad/s.

## Homework Equations

a. what is the mag of the angular accel?

## The Attempt at a Solution

alpha=delta omega/delta time
omega=delta theta/delta time
etiher or both?

the first one has 2 unknowns and the second one is wrong...why not try one of the other kinematic equations for constant angular acceleration.....the one that relates omega with alpha and theta?

i have no idea! HELLLP
