5. A giant lollipopconsists of a 280gram 14cm diameter disk on the end of a 40 gram 25cm long stick. A child is balancing a GIANT lollipop on the end of her finger.
a. What is the moment of inertiaof the lollipop about the end balanced on the childs finger?
b. If the child holds the lollipop from the end of the stick at and angle of 30o abovethe horizontal, what are the forcesthey must exert on the stickto keep it in equilibrium?
c. If the childlets loose her grip so that the lollipop begins to rotatein her handfrom the 30o position, what is the instantaneous angular acceleration of the lollipop?
