Answer:
a = 3.125 [m/s^2]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the following equation of kinematics. But first, we have to convert the speed of 90 [km/h] to meters per second.
where:
Vf = final velocity = 25 [m/s]
Vi = initial velocity = 0
a = acceleration [m/s^2]
t = time = 8 [s]
The initial speed is zero as the bus starts to koverse from rest. The positive sign of the equation means that the bus increases its speed.
25 = 0 + a*8
a = 3.125 [m/s^2]
1) In a circular motion, the angular displacement 
is given by
where S is the arc length and r is the radius. The problem says that the truck drove for 2600 m, so this corresponds to the total arc length covered by the tire:
. Using the information about the radius, 
, we find the total angular displacement:
2) If we put larger tires, with radius
, the angular displacement will be smaller. We can see this by using the same formula. In fact, this time we have:
where S is the arc length and r is the radius. The problem says that the truck drove for 2600 m, so this corresponds to the total arc length covered by the tire:
2) If we put larger tires, with radius
