A disc of radius 10 cm can rotate about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane. A force of 10 N is applied along the tangent in the plane of the disc. If the moment of inertia of the disc about its centre is 5 kg m^(2) , then the increase in the angular velocity of the disc in 10 s will be

A cockroach is moving with velocity v in anticlockwise direction on the rim of a disc of radius R of mass m . The moment of inertia of the disc about the axis is I and it is rotating in clockwise direction with an angular velocity omega . If the cockroach stops, the angular velocity of the disc will be

A man of mass m stands on a horizontal platform in the shape of a disc of mass m and radius R , pivoted on a vertical axis thorugh its centre about which it can freely rotate. The man starts to move aroung the centre of the disc in a circle of radius r with a velocity v relative to the disc. Calculate the angular velocity of the disc.

A disc with moment of inertia I_(1) , is rotating with an angular velocity omega_(1) about a fixed axis. Another coaxial disc with moment of inertia I_(2) , which is at rest is gently placed on the first disc along the axis. Due to friction discs slips against each other and after some time both disc start rotating with a common angular velocity. Find this common angular velocity.

The angular velocity of a rotating disc decreases linearly with angular displacement from 60 rev/min to zero during 10 rev . Determine the angular velocity of the disc 3 sec after it begins to slow down
