A wheel rotating about a fixed axis has a constant angular acceleration of 4.0 rad/s2. In a 4.0-s interval the wheel turns through an angle of 80 radians. Assuming the wheel started from rest, how long had it been in motion at the start of the 4.0-s interval?
a. 3 s.
b. 6 s.
c. 9 s.
d. 12 s.

[tex]\theta = \omega_1 t \ + \ \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + \frac{1}{2}*4*4^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + 32\\\\ 4\omega_1 = 48\\\\ \omega_1 = \frac{48}{4}\\\\ \omega_1 = 12 \ rad/s[/tex]

Given initial angular velocity, ω₀ = 0

Apply the kinematic equation below;

[tex]\omega_1 = \omega_o + \alpha t_1\\\\12 = 0 + 4t\\\\4t = 12\\\\t = \frac{12}{4}\\\\t = 3 \ s[/tex]

Therefore, the wheel had been in motion for 3 seconds.

a. 3 s.
