Answer

$t = 8.6~s$

Work Step by Step

We can find an expression for the angular displacement of Disk A: $\theta_A = (9.5~rad/s)~t$ We can find an expression for the angular displacement of Disk B: $\theta_B = \frac{1}{2}(2.2~rad/s^2)~t^2 = (1.1~rad/s^2)~t^2$ We can find $t$ when $\theta_A = \theta_B$: $\theta_A = \theta_B$ $9.5~t = 1.1~t^2$ $9.5 = 1.1~t$ $t = \frac{9.5}{1.1}$ $t = 8.6~s$
