Your answer is partially correct.A cockroach of mass m lies on the rim of a uniform disk of mass 7.00 m that can rotate freely about its center like a merry-go-round.Initially the cockroach and disk rotate together with an angular velocity of 0.210 rad/s. Then the cockroach walks halfway to thecenter of the disk.(a) What then is the angular velocity of the cockroach-disk system?(b) What is the ratio K/K of the new kinetic energy of the system to its initial kinetic energy?(a) w = i(b) K/Ko=1.2rad/sThis answer has no units-----
