Consider a steering wheel, which is modeled as a hoop (I = M R2) of mass 2.9 kg and radius 0.35 m.  A force is applied to the edge of the wheel, tangent to it.  The force depends on the angle of the wheel according to f(θ) = 120 θ3, where the angle is measured in radians and the zero of angle is the initial orientation of the wheel.  This force exerts a torque on the wheel which causes it to complete a half turn.  What is the angular velocity of the wheel at the end of the half turn, in rad/s?   (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
