A uniform disk is rotated about its symmetry axis. The disk goes from rest to an angular speed of 11 rad/s in a time of 0.20 s with a constant angular acceleration. The rotational inertia and radius of the disk are 1.5 kg·m2 and 11.5 cm, respectively. (a) What is the angular acceleration during the 0.20-s interval? (b) What is the net torque on the disk during this time? (c) After the applied torque stops, a frictional torque remains. This torque has an associated angular acceleration of 9.8 rad/s2. Through what total angle θ (starting from timet = 0) does the disk rotate before coming to rest? (d) What is the speed of a point halfway between the rim of the disk and its rotation axis 0.20 s after the applied torque is removed?
