Answer

$0.1 rad/s$ , $0.4 rad/s$

Work Step by Step

The initial and final angular velocities can be calculated as follows: $a=\frac{F}{m}$ $\implies a=\frac{150}{100}=1.5m/s^2$ Similarly, $\Delta \theta=\frac{125}{50}=2.5 rad$ Now $\omega_i=\frac{\Delta \theta}{t}-\frac{at}{2r}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\omega_i=\frac{2.5}{10}-\frac{1.5\times 10}{2\times 50}$ This simplifies to: $\omega_i=0.1 rad/s$ and $\omega_f=\omega_i+\frac{at}{r}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\omega_f=0.1+\frac{1.5\times 10}{50}$ This simplifies to: $\omega_f=0.4 rad/s$
