In one of your experiments, a uniform circular disk of mass m = 25.6 g and radius r = 39.0 cm hangs vertically from a fixed, frictionless, horizontal hinge at a point on its circumference as shown below. You aim a beam of electromagnetic radiation with intensity 9.5 MW/m2 so that it is incident on the disk in a direction perpendicular to its surface. The intensity of the radiation is uniform over the entire face of the disk.
