Here the angular acceleration is constant, so we have,

$θ = ω t + \frac{1}{2} α t^{2}$ .

When flywheel is rotated from rest in the first second, then $θ_{1} = \frac{1}{2} α {(1)}^{2} = 5 rad$

$\Rightarrow α = 10 rad s^{- 2}$

The angle turned by flywheel in the next second is $θ_{2} = \frac{1}{2} α {(2)}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} (10) (4) = 20 rad s^{- 2}$

Thus, the angle turned during next second is $θ = 20 - 5 = 15 rad$
