A cord of negligible mass is wound around the rim of a wheel supported by spokes with negligible mass. The mass of wheel is $\displaystyle 10$ kg and radius is $\displaystyle 10$ cm and it can freely rotate without any friction. Initially the wheel is at rest. If a steady pull of $\displaystyle 20$ N is applied on the cord, the angular velocity of the wheel, after the cord is unwound by $\displaystyle 1$ m, would be :
