Homework Statement
Assume that there is no slipping of the surfaces in contact during the rolling motion.
A motorcycle accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a linear speed of 22.0 m/s in a time of 9s. The radius of each tire is 0.280 meters. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of each tire?
Homework Equations
really not sure what I am doing.
The Attempt at a Solution
In the book it says that when there is no slipping, that tangential velocity = linear velocity. And since [tex]\alpha[/tex] = [tex]\Delta\omega[/tex]/[tex]\Deltat[/tex] , took 22 and divided it by 9 seconds..
