Heres the problem I am workin on
http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/9166/rotatesm3.jpg [Broken]
Now in order to find the magnitude of accleration I am assuming I would need to find the two components of acceleration first, Centripetal and Tangential...
I found tangetial by the formula
[tex] a_{t} = r\alpha [/tex]
I converted the 2 revolutions to
[tex] 4\pi radians [/tex]
but I am not exactly sure how to get tangential...i need angualr velocity...
how to I get angular velocity from revolutions?
