1. Two thin uniform rods, each of length 0.80 m and mass 2.00 kg are stuck together at their midpoints; we rotate this object about an axis though the midpoints and perpendicu- lar to the plane of the object. The object starts from rest and is acted on by a constant torque. In 8.0 s it has a rotation rate of 150 revolutions per minute. a) What is the angular acceleration of the object? b) What is the moment of inertia of the object? c) What was the magnitude of the torque applied to the object? d) At t = 8.0 s, what was the kinetic energy of the object? 1.
