The Correct answer is (D)

The equation of rotational motion for constant angular acceleration is given by

ω_f = ω_i + αt

⇒ α = \(\frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}\)

Where,

ω_f = final angular velocity
ω_i = initial angular velocity
α = angular acceleration
t = time taken to reach final angular velocity from initial angular velocity.

Given,

Initial angular velocity, ω_i = 10 rad/s

final angular velocity, ω_f = 100 rad/s

Time taken, t = 15 sec

Using the equation of rotational motion, angular acceleration (α) of the wheel, is given by

α = \(\frac{100-10}{15} = \frac{90}{15}\)

⇒ α = 6 rad/sec²
