A 44 m diameter wheel accelerates uniformly about its center from 110 rpm to 320 rpm in 3.9 s.

Determine the radial component of the linear acceleration of a point on the edge of the wheel 1.0 s after it has started accelerating.

Determine the tangential component of the linear acceleration of a point on the edge of the wheel 1.0 after it has started accelerating.

find w at t=1

w=wi+at where a= 2PI/60 (320-110) rad/sec

radial acceleartion= w^2 r

tangential acceleration = a*r
