A uniform circular disc of radius \(50~\text{cm}\) at rest is free to turn about an axis that is perpendicular to its plane and passes through its centre. It is subjected to a torque that produces a constant angular acceleration of \(2.0~\text{rad/s}^2.\) Its net acceleration in \(\text{m/s}^2\) at the end of \(2.0~\text s\) is approximately:

1. \(7\) 2. \(6\)
