A tape having a thickness s wraps around the wheel which is turning at a constant rate ω. Assuming the unwrapped portion of tape remains horizontal, determine the acceleration of point P of the unwrapped tape when the radius of the wrapped tape is r. Since vP = ωr, take the time derivative and note that dr/dt = ω (s/2π).(1) ap
