A cockroach of mass m lies on the rim of a uniform disk of mass 4.00 m that can rotate freely about its center like a merry-go-round. Initially the cockroach and disk rotate together with an angular velocity of 0.230 rad/s. Then the cockroach walks half way to the center of the disk. What then is the angular velocity of the cockroach-disk system? What is the ratio K/K0 of the new kinetic energy of the system to its initial kinetic...

A thin uniform disk of radius r and mass m is spinning about its center at angular speed ω0. The disk is placed flat on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the disk and the surface is μ and constant for the entire area of contact. a) Find the frictional torque on the disk.

The angular momentum of a freely rotating disk around its center is L_disk. You toss a heavy block horizontally onto the disk at two different orientations, but with the same speed, as shown in the figure. Friction acts between the disk and the block so that eventually the block is at rest on the disk and rotates with it. In which case is the magnitude of the final angular momentum of the disk-block system the greatest?  Case A  Case B  Same for both

A potter's wheel—a thick stone disk of radius 0.500 m and mass 125 kg—is freely rotating at 50.0 rev/min. The potter can stop the wheel in 6.00 s by pressing a wet rag against the rim and exerting a radially inward force of 72.0 N. Find the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheel and rag.

A uniform disk of radius 0.543 m and unknown mass is constrained to rotate about a perpendicular axis through its center. A ring with same mass as the disk\'s is attached around the disk\'s rim. A tangential force of 0.201 N applied at the rim causes an angular acceleration of 0.119 rad/s2. Find the mass of the disk.
