The wheels of a wagon can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop, of radius m = 0.421 m and mass 5.65 kg, and two thin crossed rods of mass 8.66 kg each. You would like to replace the wheels with uniform disks that are 0.0651 m thick, made out of a material with a density of 7370 kilograms per cubic meter. If the new wheel is to have the same moment of inertia about its center as the old wheel about its center, what should the radius of the disk be? Number 0.0651 m

A solid cylinder of mass 2.0 kg and radius 20 cm is rotating counterclockwise around a vertical axis through its center at 600 rev/min. A second solid cylinder of the same mass and radius is rotating clockwise around the same vertical axis at 900 rev/min. If the cylinders couple so that they rotate about the same vertical axis, what is the angular velocity of the combination?
A playground merry-go-round of radius R = 2.00 m has a moment of inertia I = 250 kg m2 and is rotating at 10.0 rev/min about a frictionless, vertical axle.
