- Harry sets some clay (m = 3.25 kg) on the edge of a pottery wheel (r = 0.600 m), which is initially motionless. He then begins to rotate the wheel with a uniform acceleration, reaching a final angular speed of 2.400 rev/s in 3.00 s, while not touching the clay. As a result, the clay is subject to a tangential and centripetal acceleration while it sits on the edge of the wheel. a.
