Homework Statement
Wheel A of radius ra = 8.9 cm is coupled by belt B to wheel C of radius rc = 30.7 cm. Wheel A increases its angular speed from rest at time t = 0 s at a uniform rate of 8.6 rad/s2. At what time will wheel C reach a rotational speed of 93.0 rev/min, assuming the belt does not slip?
Homework Equations
2 π rad = 1 Rev
v = vo + at ( constant acc)
The Attempt at a Solution
Wheel A and Wheel C have the same velocity, so I converted the rads to revs and 93 rev/min to 1.55 revs/s and divided the velocity by the acceleration to find the time. But the answer doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong ? Please help !
Thanks
