Dear Ram Sai Charan,

Ans:- Let the angular acceleration is a

θ=1/2 a t²

or 10×2∏=1/2 a t²

a=40∏/t².......................(1)

let the total time taken by it to rotate 20 rotations=T Hence from 1 we get,

T²=80∏/a

=2t²

T=√2 t

Hence if we calculate the time from the instant it finished 10 rotations is =(√2 - 1)t
