A disk of radius R = 0.5 m rolls on a horizontal surface. The relationship between the horizontal distance x the center of the disk moves and the angle β through which the disk rotates is x = Rβ. Suppose that the center of the disk is moving to the right with a constant velocity of 2 m/s.

(a) What is the disk’s angular velocity?


(b) What is the disk’s angular velocity vector?
