Question

please fill ot the data sheet for  conservation of angular momentum using two air mounted disks lab. (show all work)

Table 1. Moment of Inertia of the disks

	Mass, M (kg)	Diameter (m)	Radius (m)	I (kg.m2 )
Upper disk	1.3563	0.125	.0625	I upper = .0026490
Lower disk	1.3438	0.125	.0625	I upper = .0026246

Table 2. Inelastic collision of two disks                                          

Trial	Reading of counter, n			Angular velocity, w (rad/s)			Angular momentum, L (kg.m 2/s)					%diff.
	Before collision		after	before		after	Before collision				after
	upper	lower		upper	lower		upper	lower	total
1	360	0	358	11.3	0	11.247
2	0	330	290	0	10.38	9.1106
3	444	361	207	13.95	11.34	6.5031
4	-293 (clockwise)	322 (counter clockwise)	187	-9.205	10.116	5.875

Table 3. Kinetic Energy

Trial	Rotation kinetic energy (J)
	Before collision			After collision
	upper	lower	total
