Angular MomentumMediumQuestion 6140
Question
A disc (I=0.1 kg·m²) rotating at 5 rad/s. Another disc (I=0.1 kg·m²) placed coaxially at rest. New ω:
- A5 rad/s
- B2.5 rad/sCorrect
- C10 rad/s
- D1.25 rad/s
Correct answer
2.5 rad/s
Explanation
L = 0.1×5 = 0.5 kg·m²/s. I_total = 0.2. ω = 0.5/0.2 = 2.5 rad/s.
