Answer

$28.18\ rad/s^2$

Work Step by Step

Given: The initial angular velocity $\omega_o = 0$ The final angular velocity $\omega = 6.20\ rad/s$ Time $t =220\ ms$ Rotational inertia about her center of mass is $I = 12\ kg.m^2$ From the rotational kinematics equation, we have: $\omega = \omega_o + \alpha t$ where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration We rearrange the equation and solve for $\alpha$: $\alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_o}{t}$ $\alpha = \frac{6.2\ rad/s^2-0}{0.220\ s}$ $\alpha= 28.18\ rad/s^2$
