A small rubber wheel is used to drive a large pottery wheel, and they are mounted so that their circular edges touch. The small wheel has a radius of 2.0 cm and accelerates at the rate of 6.9 rad/s2, and it is in contact with the pottery wheel (radius 25.0 cm) without slipping.

(a) Calculate the angular acceleration of the pottery wheel.

(b) Calculate the time it takes the pottery wheel to reach its required speed of 55 rpm.

hey thanks for helping. This was a question I had for homework that I don't even know where to start, so I'd like some help working it out. I probably won't be on the website again until Thursday or Friday because of high school, college, and work. Do you think you could help then?

Probably. I am going to be pretty busy in the next few weeks though because the term is almost over.
