First, convert the initial angular velocity from revolutions per minute (RPM) to radians per second (rad/s). Use the conversion factor: 1 RPM = \( \frac{2\pi}{60} \) rad/s.
Next, convert the final angular velocity from RPM to rad/s using the same conversion factor.
Determine the change in angular velocity (\( \Delta \omega \)) by subtracting the initial angular velocity from the final angular velocity.
Use the formula for angular acceleration (\( \alpha \)), which is the change in angular velocity divided by the time taken for the change: \( \alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} \).
Substitute the values of \( \Delta \omega \) and \( \Delta t \) (2 seconds) into the formula to calculate the angular acceleration.
