In the figure, wheel A of radius ra is coupled by belt B to wheel C of radius rc. The angular speed of wheel A is increased from rest at a constant rate a. Find the time needed for wheel C to reach angular speed w assuming the belt does not slip. (Hint: If the belt does not slip, the linear speeds at the two rims must be equal.) State your answer in terms of the given variables.
