Consider the 15.0 kg motorcycle wheel shown in the figure. Assume it to be approximately an annular ring with an inner radius of  R1 = 0.280 m  and an outer radius of  R2 = 0.300 m.  The motorcycle is on its center stand, so that the wheel can spin freely.  (a) If the drive chain exerts a force of 2050 N at a radius of 5.00 cm, what is the angular acceleration of the wheel in rad/s2?   (b) What is the tangential acceleration, in m/s2, of a point on the outer edge of the tire?   (c) How long in seconds, starting from rest, does it take to reach an angular velocity of 80.0 rad/s?

Question
Consider the 15.0 kg motorcycle wheel shown in the figure. Assume it to be approximately an annular ring with an inner radius of 
R1 = 0.280 m
 and an outer radius of 
R2 = 0.300 m.
 The motorcycle is on its center stand, so that the wheel can spin freely. 

(a)
If the drive chain exerts a force of 2050 N at a radius of 5.00 cm, what is the angular acceleration of the wheel in rad/s2?
 
(b)
What is the tangential acceleration, in m/s2, of a point on the outer edge of the tire?
 
(c)
How long in seconds, starting from rest, does it take to reach an angular velocity of 80.0 rad/s?
