The angular velocity of a particle moving in a circle of radius 50cm is increased in 5min from 100 revolutions per minute to 400 revolutions per minute. Find its angular acceleration in rad/s2

Solution
Using the 1st equation of motion for circular motion, we get ωf=ωi+αt ⇒400=100+α(5) ⇒300=5α ⇒α=3005rev/min2 =300×2π5×60×60
