Question 2.SP.29: A wheel accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 200 rp......

A wheel accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 200 rpm in \frac{1}{2}  s. It then rotates at that speed for 2 s before decelerating to rest in \frac{1}{3}  s. How many revolutions does it make during the entire time interval?

\begin{array}{l}\text{From t = 0 to t = 0.5} :\qquad \qquad \theta_{1}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\omega_{0}+\omega\right) t=\frac{1}{2}(0+200 / 60  \mathrm{rev} / \mathrm{s})(0.5 \mathrm{~s})=0.83  \mathrm{rev} \\  \\ \text{From t = 0.5 to t = 2.5 :} \qquad \qquad \theta_{2}=\omega t=(200 / 60  \mathrm{rev} / \mathrm{s})(2 \mathrm{~s})=6.67  \mathrm{rev} \\  \\ \text{From t = 2.5 to rest:}\quad \qquad \qquad \theta_{3}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\omega_{0}+\omega\right) t=\frac{1}{2}(200 / 60  \mathrm{rev} / \mathrm{s}+0)(0.333 \mathrm{~s})=0.56  \mathrm{rev}\end{array}

Total number of revolutions

\theta=\theta_{1}+\theta_{2}+\theta_{3}=\underline{8.06  \mathrm{rev}}
