A disk of radius \(R\) rotates about a fixed axis through its center. The angular speed of the disk as a function of time \(t\) is given by \(\omega(t) = bt^2\), where \(b\) is a positive constant. At what time \(t > 0\) does a point on the rim of the disk experience tangential and radial accelerations of equal magnitude?
