  1. A safe door like the one in the picture can be modeled as a disk. It has a mass of 500[kg], a radius of 1.0[m] and it swings open around an axle that goes through the edge of the disk shaped safe. Assume I=625 kg m^2. Assume the axle is frictionless

Assuming that a very strong thief is pulling the door open with 800[N], how long would it take for them to open the door ½ way, that is: by an angular displacement of p/2 radians? Assume he is pulling the door in its middle (the steering wheel).
