Answer

$\omega_B=31.714rad/s$ (counter-clockwise)

Work Step by Step

We can determine the required angular velocity as follows: As $d\omega=\alpha dt$ $\int_{\omega_{\circ}^{\omega_A}}=\int_0^t (2t^3)dt$ This simplifies to: $[\omega]^{\omega_A}_{15}=[\frac{1}{2}t^4]_0^t$ $\implies \omega_A=\frac{1}{2}t^4+15$ At $t=3s$ $\omega=\frac{1}{2}(3)^4+15=55.5rad/s$ We know that $\omega_B r_B=\omega_A r_A$ This can be rearranged as: $\omega_B=\frac{r_A}{r_B}\omega_A$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\omega_B=\frac{100}{175}(55.5)$ $\implies \omega_B=31.714rad/s$ (counter-clockwise)
