Answer

a) $\omega_f=+18rad/s$ b) $\omega_f=+6rad/s$ c) $\omega_f=-6rad/s$ d) $\omega_f=-18rad/s$

Work Step by Step

We have $$\overline\alpha=\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_0}{\Delta t}$$ Therefore, $$\omega_f=\overline\alpha\Delta t+\omega_0$$ a) $$\omega_f=(+3\times2)+12=+18rad/s$$ b) $$\omega_f=(-3\times2)+12=+6rad/s$$ c) $$\omega_f=(+3\times2)-12=-6rad/s$$ d) $$\omega_f=(-3\times2)-12=-18rad/s$$
