Answer

a) ${\bf 1.96\;\times 10^3}\;\rm rad/s$ b) ${\bf 70.7}\;\rm V$

Work Step by Step

$$\color{blue}{\bf [a]}$$ We know that $\phi=\omega t$, So $$\omega=\dfrac{\phi}{t}$$ Plug the given and don't forget to convert the angle to radians. $$\omega=\dfrac{225^\circ}{2\times 10^{-3}}\times \dfrac{\pi\;\rm rad}{180^\circ }$$ $$\omega=\color{red}{\bf 1.96\;\times 10^3}\;\rm rad/s$$ $$\color{blue}{\bf [b]}$$ We know that the emf is given by $$\varepsilon=\varepsilon_0\cos(\omega t)$$ So the peak emf is given by $$\varepsilon_0=\dfrac{\varepsilon}{\cos\phi}$$ Plug the known; $$\varepsilon_0=\dfrac{-50}{\cos(225^\circ)}$$ $$\varepsilon_0=\color{red}{\bf 70.7}\;\rm V$$
