1. A disk of mass M=160kg and radius R=0.40m spins with an initial rate of 12 revolutions per second. Because of friction in the bearing, the disk slows down at a uniform rate. After 20 minutes it comes to a stop.

(a) How many revolutions does the disk make before coming to rest?

(b) What is the moment of inertia of the disk?

(c) Find the angular acceleration of the disk as it slows down.

(d) Find the torque that acts on the disk while it is slowing down.

A potter’s wheel, a thick stone disk of radius 0.500 m and mass 100 kg, is freely rotating at 70.0 rev/min. The potter can stop the wheel by pressing a wet rag against the rim and exerting a radially inward force of 35.0 N. If the applied force slows the wheel down with an angular acceleration of 0.875rad/s2 , calculate the torque acting on the wheel and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheel and the rag
