Homework Statement
African baobab trees can have circumferences of up to 43.0 m. Imagine riding a bicycle around a
tree this size. If, starting from rest, you travel a distance of 162 m around the tree with a constant
angular acceleration of 5.00 × 10–2 rad/s2, what will your final angular speed be?
Homework Equations
circumference = 2*pi*r ; ω = v/r
The Attempt at a Solution
I thought of isolating r from the circumference and I got 6.844m. I planned using this for angular speed equation but then I had to deal with angular acceleration. At which point, I got confused given how I am a novice at this
