Detailed Solution

Given, ϕ=at2

Angular velocity, ω=dϕdt=2at

α=d2ϕdt=2a

we know that,

     v=ωr     v=2atr r=v2at      =0.652×0.2×2.5=0.65m

Tangential acceleration 

at=αr     =2ar     =2×0.20×0.65     =0.26 m/s2

Normal acceleration

ac=v2r     =0.6520.65     =0.65 m/s2

Total acceleration,

a=at2+ac2=0.7 m/s2
