$A$ wheel of radius $0.2 \ m$ rotates freely about its center when a string that is wrapped over its rim is pulled by a force of $10 \ N$ as shown in the figure. The established torque produces an angular acceleration of $2 \ rad/s^2$. The moment of inertia of the wheel is . . . . . . $kg \ m^2$. (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ string is wrapped around the rim of a wheel with a moment of inertia of $0.20 \ kg \cdot m^2$ and a radius of $20 \ cm$. The wheel is free to rotate about its axis and is initially at rest. The string is now pulled with a force of $20 \ N$. What will be the angular velocity of the wheel after $5 \ s$ in $rad/s$?
