Q2 / 223 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Rotational Motion

On the application of a constant torque, a wheel is turned from rest to 400 rad in 10 s. If same torque continues to act, the angular velocity of the wheel after 20 s from the start is

  • Correct answer
    A
    160 rad s-1
  • B
    150 rad s-1
  • C
    120 rad s-1
  • D
    130 rad s-1

Solution

By using the following equation,
θ=ω0t+12αt2

α=8 rad s-2

Also, ω=ω0+αt

Here ω0=0, α=8 rad s-2 and t=20 s

∴ω=0+8×20=160rad s-1

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
