Answer

It makes $~~8.3~~$ revolutions in this time.

Work Step by Step

We can find the angular acceleration: $\omega_f = \omega_0+\alpha~t$ $\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_0}{t}$ $\alpha = \frac{0 - 33~\frac{1}{3}~rev/min}{0.50~min}$ $\alpha = -66~\frac{2}{3}~rev/min^2$ We can find $\theta$: $\theta = \omega_0~t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha~t^2$ $\theta = (33\frac{1}{3}~rev/min)(0.50~min)+\frac{1}{2}(-66~\frac{2}{3}~rev/min^2)~(0.50~min)^2$ $\theta = 8.3~rev$ It makes $~~8.3~~$ revolutions in this time.
