Angular Velocity Displacement
1. **Problem Statement:**
We have a spinning disk with angular acceleration given by $\alpha(t) = -ct$, where $c = 0.2$ rad/s$^3$. The initial angular velocity is $\omega_0 = 5$ rad/s.
We need to find:
A) Angular velocity $\omega(t)$ as a function of time.
B) Angular displacement $\theta(t)$ as a function of time.
C) The time when the disk stops rotating.
2. **Formulas and Rules:**
- Angular acceleration is the derivative of angular velocity: $\alpha(t) = \frac{d\omega}{dt}$.
- Angular velocity is the derivative of angular displacement: $\omega(t) = \frac{d\theta}{dt}$.
- To find $\omega(t)$, integrate $\alpha(t)$ with respect to time.
- To find $\theta(t)$, integrate $\omega(t)$ with respect to time.
- Use initial conditions to find constants of integration.
3. **Find Angular Velocity $\omega(t)$:**
Given $\alpha(t) = -ct = -0.2t$,
$$\frac{d\omega}{dt} = -0.2t$$
Integrate both sides with respect to $t$:
$$\omega(t) = \int -0.2t \, dt = -0.2 \frac{t^2}{2} + C_1 = -0.1 t^2 + C_1$$
Use initial condition $\omega(0) = 5$:
$$5 = -0.1 \times 0^2 + C_1 \Rightarrow C_1 = 5$$
So,
$$\boxed{\omega(t) = 5 - 0.1 t^2}$$
4. **Find Angular Displacement $\theta(t)$:**
Since $\omega(t) = \frac{d\theta}{dt} = 5 - 0.1 t^2$,
Integrate with respect to $t$:
$$\theta(t) = \int (5 - 0.1 t^2) dt = 5t - 0.1 \frac{t^3}{3} + C_2 = 5t - \frac{0.1}{3} t^3 + C_2$$
Assuming initial angular displacement $\theta(0) = 0$:
$$0 = 5 \times 0 - \frac{0.1}{3} \times 0^3 + C_2 \Rightarrow C_2 = 0$$
So,
$$\boxed{\theta(t) = 5t - \frac{0.1}{3} t^3 = 5t - \frac{t^3}{30}}$$
5. **Find Time When Disk Stops Rotating:**
Disk stops when angular velocity is zero:
$$0 = 5 - 0.1 t^2$$
Solve for $t$:
$$0.1 t^2 = 5 \Rightarrow t^2 = \frac{5}{0.1} = 50 \Rightarrow t = \sqrt{50} = 5 \sqrt{2} \approx 7.07 \text{ seconds}$$
**Final answers:**
- Angular velocity: $\omega(t) = 5 - 0.1 t^2$
- Angular displacement: $\theta(t) = 5t - \frac{t^3}{30}$
- Time when disk stops: $t = 5 \sqrt{2} \approx 7.07$ seconds
**Note:** A free body diagram is not applicable here because the problem involves rotational kinematics with given angular acceleration, not forces or torques acting on the disk.
