Question:
A disk-shaped grindstone of mass 1.7 kg and radius 8 cm is spinning at 730 rev/min. After the power is shut off, a woman continues to sharpen her ax by holding it against the grindstone for 9 s until the grindstone stops rotating.
(a) What is the angular acceleration of the grindstone?
(b) What is the torque exerted by the ax on the grindstone? (Assume constant angular acceleration and a lack of other frictional torques.)

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
