|---|---|---|
| 1 | \[ \theta = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2 \] | This is the rotational kinematics equation for angular displacement when starting from rest with constant angular acceleration \(\alpha\). |
| 2 | \[ \theta_f = \frac{1}{2}\alpha t_f^2 \] | Substitute \(t = t_f\) into the formula to obtain the final angular displacement at time \(t_f\). |
| 3 | \[ \theta_{1/2} = \frac{1}{2}\alpha \left(\frac{t_f}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{2}\alpha \frac{t_f^2}{4} = \frac{1}{8}\alpha t_f^2 \] | Substitute \(t = \frac{t_f}{2}\) into the formula to obtain the angular displacement at half the final time. |
| 4 | \[ \frac{\theta_f}{\theta_{1/2}} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\alpha t_f^2}{\frac{1}{8}\alpha t_f^2} = 4 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \theta_f = 4\theta_{1/2} \] | Dividing the two expressions shows that the final displacement is four times the displacement at half the time. |
| 5 | \[ \boxed{\theta_f = 4\theta_{1/2}} \] | This confirms that the correct relationship is given in option (d). |
