Homework Statement
a) A 1.79 kg toy train accelerates constantly from 0.82 m/s to 3.43 m/s in 0.479 revolutions while traveling around a circular track of r 16.7 cm. Find:
- α, magnitude of the angular acceleration.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
- I first tried getting θ=(.479)(2pi)=3.009
- Then I found both the ωf and the ωo by finding the frequencies... I did this by first finding the distence covered by the partial revolution then using the velocity. I did this for both the ω's...
- Then i simply used the kinematic analog equation for rotational bodies and got α to be .00656 rad/sec2 and this came out to be wrong
