A thin rod rotates at a constant angular speed. In case A the axis of rotation is perpendicular to the rod at its center. In case B the axis is perpendicular to the rod at one end. In which case, if either, are there points on the rod that have the same tangential speeds?

Amachinist turns the power on to a grinding wheel, at rest, at time t = 0 s. the wheel accelerates uniformly for 10 s and reaches the operating angular velocity of 96 rad/s. the wheel is run at that angular velocity for 40 s and then power is shut off. the wheel slows down uniformly at 1.5 rad/s2 until the wheel stops. in this situation, the time interval of deceleration is closest to:
