3. A car moves forward 10.0 m in 1.5 s. Each tire rotates through an arc
length of 10.0 m, and each car tire has a radius of 3.5 × 10–1 m.
a. Find the angular displacement of one of the tires.
c. Assume the tire starts from rest and accelerates uniformly. Find the
angular acceleration of the tire.
d. What is the instantaneous angular speed of the tire after 1.5 s?
4. The period, T, of rotational motion is the time required for one com-
plete revolution, or the time for the object to rotate through 2p rad.

c. double the radius, decrease the force to 4
d. If measured in the opposite direction, the force will
be in the opposite direction.

5. Student diagrams should show vectors for weight and
normal force from elevator; descent should show normal
force less than weight; stopping should show normal
force greater than weight; “weightlessness” feeling is due
to acceleration.
