A solid disk, spinning counter-clockwise, has a mass of $13 k g$ $13 kg$ and a radius of $\frac{8}{5} m$ $8/5 m$ . If a point on the edge of the disk is moving at $\frac{7}{4} \frac{m}{s}$ $7/4 m/s$ in the direction perpendicular to the disk's radius, what is the disk's angular momentum and velocity?

The angular momentum is $= 18.2 k g m^{2} s^{- 1}$ $=18.2kgm^2s^-1$ and the angular velocity is $= 1.094 r a d s^{- 1}$ $=1.094rads^-1$

The angular velocity is

$omega=(Deltatheta)/(Deltat)$

$v=r*((Deltatheta)/(Deltat))=r omega$

$omega=v/r$

where,

$v=7/4ms^(-1)$

$r=8/5m$

So,

The angular velocity is

$omega=(7/4)/(8/5)=1.09375rads^-1$

The angular momentum is $L=Iomega$

For a solid disc, $I=(mr^2)/2$

The mass is $m=13 kg$

So, $I=13*(8/5)^2/2=16.64kgm^2$

The angular momentum is

$L=16.64*1.094=18.2kgm^2s^-1$
