Question: [ D ] A toy top is in the form of a cone with a circular top of radius 1 5 [ c m ]

[D] A toy top is in the form of a cone with a circular top of radius 15[cm], and height 45[cm]. The cross-section of the top when the point is at the origin is given by y=3|x|. The moment of inertia for the top is 233[kg**m2].
Calculate the uniform density [kgm3] from the moment of inertia and the appropriate integral.

The top is accelerated to a spin rate w by pulling a string wrapped around the 15[cm] radius of the cone. Rube decides to run this string over a pulley of mass 50[g] and radius 2[cm] with its axis horizontal. The end of a string is attached to a 100[g] mass which is released from rest.
Calculate the acceleration of the hanging mass when released. Label the diagram to define the variables you use. [10 points]
Calculate the angular velocity of the top when the mass has dropped 20[cm].[6 points]
