Question

(a) Calculate the linear acceleration of a car, the 0.220-m radius tires of which have an angular acceleration of 11.0 rad/s2. Assume no slippage.

Answer 1

Answer:

The value is  $a_t = 2.42 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The radius of the tires is  $r = 0.22 \ m$

   The  angular acceleration is  $\alpha = 11.0 \ rad/s^2$

Generally the linear acceleration is mathematically represented as

     $a_t = r * \alpha$

=>  $a_t = 0.22 * 11$

=>  $a_t = 2.42 \ m/s^2$
