Problem

A solid disc starts with an angular velocity of 10 rad s−110\,\text{rad}\,\text{s}^{-1} clockwise. It then experiences a constant angular acceleration of 3 rad s−23\,\text{rad}\,\text{s}^{-2} anticlockwise for 8 s8\,\text{s}. Taking anticlockwise as the positive direction, determine the angular displacement of the disc during this interval. (a) 80 rad80\,\text{rad} (b) −16 rad-16\,\text{rad} (c) 16 rad16\,\text{rad} (d) −68 rad-68\,\text{rad}
