A constant force of 40 N is applied tangentially to the rim of a wheel with 20 cm radius.

The wheel has a moment of inertia of 30 kg m2.

Show that the angular acceleration of
the wheel is 0.27 rad s-2

Torque=I*alpha
force*radius=I(alpha

solve for alpha.
oo...i totally forgot to expand torque to be the force x perpend. radius

thanks..got it
