Moment of Inertia and conservation of Momentum
Circular disks are used in automobile clutches and transmission. When a rotating disk couples to a stationary one through frictional force the energy from the rotating disk can transfer to the stationary one. (a) Is the angular speed of the coupled disks (1) greater than (2) less than or (3) the same as the angular speed of the original rotating disk? Why? (b) If the disk rotating at 800 rpm couples to a stationary disk with three times the moment of inertia what is the angular speed of the combination?

Radius and mass of pulley are 0.10m and 0.10 kg respectively. (A) What is the acceleration of the masses? (Neglect friction and strings mass) (b) If the pulley has a constant frictional torque of 0.050 m x N when the system is in motion what is the acceleration of the masses? ( Hint: Isolate the force. The tensions in the strings are different. Why?)
