(Figure 1) Consider a turntable to be a circular disk of moment of inertia I, rotating at a constant angular velocity w; around an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the disk (the disk's "primary axis of symmetry"). The axis of the disk is vertical and the disk is supported by frictionless bearings. The motor of the turntable is off, so there is no external torque being applied to the axis.

Angular Momentum
The momentum of an object is given by multiplying its mass and velocity. Momentum is a property of any object that moves with mass. The only difference between angular momentum and linear momentum is that angular momentum deals with moving or spinning objects. A moving particle's linear momentum can be thought of as a measure of its linear motion. The force is proportional to the rate of change of linear momentum. Angular momentum is always directly proportional to mass. In rotational motion, the concept of angular momentum is often used. Since it is a conserved quantity—the total angular momentum of a closed system remains constant—it is a significant quantity in physics. To understand the concept of angular momentum first we need to understand a rigid body and its movement, a position vector that is used to specify the position of particles in space. A rigid body possesses motion it may be linear or rotational. Rotational motion plays important role in angular momentum.
Moment of a Force
The idea of moments is an important concept in physics. It arises from the fact that distance often plays an important part in the interaction of, or in determining the impact of forces on bodies. Moments are often described by their order [first, second, or higher order] based on the power to which the distance has to be raised to understand the phenomenon. Of particular note are the second-order moment of mass (Moment of Inertia) and moments of force.

Because of friction, rotational kinetic energy is not conserved while the disks' surfaces slip over each other. What is the final rotational kinetic energy, KF, of the two spinning disks?
Express the final kinetic energy in terms of It, Ir, and the initial kinetic energy K; of the two-disk system. No angular velocities should appear in your answer.

(Figure 1) Consider a turntable to be a circular disk of
moment of inertia I, rotating at a constant angular velocity
w; around an axis through the center and perpendicular to
the plane of the disk (the disk's "primary axis of symmetry").
The axis of the disk is vertical and the disk is supported by
frictionless bearings. The motor of the turntable is off, so
there is no external torque being applied to the axis.
Another disk (a record) is dropped onto the first such that it
lands coaxially (the axes coincide). The moment of inertia
of the record is Ir. The initial angular velocity of the second
disk is zero.
There is friction between the two disks.
After this "rotational collision," the disks will eventually
rotate with the same angular velocity.
Assume that the turntable deccelerated during time At before reaching the final angular velocity (At is the time interval between the moment when the top disk is dropped and the time that the disks begin to spin at
the same angular velocity). What was the average torque, (7), acting on the bottom disk due to friction with the record?
Express the torque in terms of I, ₁, wr, and At.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F76eec8ec-d87c-4fdd-96a3-96e8325f09a2%2F4a6f6543-e93d-49b8-8649-b8a68d2c3c49%2Fzffjtb_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
