An electric sander consisting of a rotating disk of mass 0.75 kg and radius 10 cm rotates at 15 rev/sec. When applied to a rough wooden wall the rotation rate decreases by 30.0%.

a) What is the final rotational kinetic energy of the rotating disk?

b) How much has its rotational kinetic energy [in J] decreased?

A disk (mass of 3 kg, radius 30 cm) is rotating with an angular velocity w1= 5 rad/s. A second disk (mass 2kg, radius 15cm), which is rotating at w= -7 rad/s is dropped on top of the first disk. The disks are dropped so that they share a rotational axis, and they stick together. The moment of inertia of a disk is 1/2mr^2. What is the final angular speed of the two disks?

Disk A, with a mass of 2.0 kg and a radius of 60 cm , rotates clockwise about a frictionless vertical axle at 40 rev/s . Disk B, also 2.0 kg but with a radius of 40 cm , rotates counterclockwise about that same axle, but at a greater height than disk A, at 40 rev/s . Disk B slides down the axle until it lands on top of disk A, after which they rotate together.

A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 148-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 1.28 x 109 J of energy. How fast would a 34.5-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.463 m...

A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 162-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 4.12 x 109 J of energy. How fast would a 41.4-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.229 m...

In the figure the lower disk, of mass 440 g and radius 3.7 cm , is rotating at 180 rpm on a frictionless shaft of negligible radius. The upper disk, of mass 280 g and radius 2.0 cm , is initially not rotating. It drops freely down onto the lower disk, and frictional forces bring the two disks to a common rotational speed. A) Find the common speed. B) Find the fraction of the initial kinetic energy lost to friction.
