Question
The θ integration fails if α is non-constant. There is also a type of situation where the step before the integration fails, involving ω.
Question 3: derive θ = θ0 + (ω + ω0) t/2.
You probably need to use prior derived results.
![The Notion of Deriving
Deriving an equation (or a statement) is more than just asserting it. It's showing how it must be true (and anything
contrary must be false). One doesn't understand the material as long as one is limited to memorizing statements or
equations, without being able to connect them.
As a further, practical thing, understanding the connection makes it less likely that one would use an equation when it
doesn't apply. In particular, one would avoid the "equations of constant acceleration" anytime one had non-constant
acceleration.
In this assignment, I assign you to derive the "equations of constant acceleration" -- all but one that I will derive. We
will use 0, w, and a, satisfying these defınitions:
dw

OP
α
W =

dt
and one special case: a is constant. (You should spot the false step when a is non-constant.) w and 0 are functions of
time: w(t) and O(t). wo = w(0), and 00 = 0(0).
My Example: derive w2 - wo² = 2a(0-0).

Substitute the initial (t=0) quantities, and subtract. The constant of integration vanishes.
w3 = 2a6, + 2C
w? - wz = 2a(0 – 0o)
The 0 integration fails if a is non-constant. There is also a type of situation where the step before the integration fails,
involving w.
