Question
A thin solid disk of mass 21.6 kg is rotating at 10.6 rad/s
about an axis through its center and perpendicular to the
disk. If the kinetic energy of the rotating disk is 46.8 J,
what must be the diameter of this disk to achieve this
energy? The moment of inertia for thin solid disk is
I =
= 1/2mr².
