Answer

$\theta=3.32rev$ $t=1.67s$

Work Step by Step

We can determine the required number of revolutions and the time as follows: $\omega^2=\omega_{\circ}^2+2\alpha(\theta-\theta_{\circ})$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $(15)^2=(10)^2+2(3)(\theta-0)$ This simplifies to: $\theta=(20.83)(\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad})=3.32rev$ Now $\omega=\omega_{\circ}+\alpha t$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $15=10+3t$ This simplifies to: $t=1.67s$
