 A uniform circular disc of mass 1.5 kg and radius 0.5m  is initially at rest on a  horizontal frictionless surface. Three forces of equal magnitude  F=0.5N  are applied simultaneously along the three sides of an equilateral triangle XYZ with its vertices on the perimeter of the disc (see figure) . One second after applying the forces, the angular speed of the disc in rad s-1 is

A) 4

B) 3

C) 1

D) 2

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

  Angular impluse = change in angular momentum

        τdt=Iω

        ω=τdtI

=3Fsin300RdtI

 substituting the values, we have

ω=3(0.5)(0.5)(0.5)(1)1.5(0.5)22=2rad/s
