(a) Use: impulse = change of angular momentum
T.(8) = I.(60 - 240).(2.pi/60)
where T is the torque applied to disk A
I is the moment of inertia of disk A
pi = 3.14159...
hence, T/I = [(60 - 240).(2.pi/60)]/8
but T/I = angular acceleration
i.e. angular acceleration = [(60 - 240).(2.pi/60)]/8 = -2.356 rad/s^2
(b) The final angular velocity of 60 rpm in the clockwise direction, hence
angular acceleration of disk B = [(-60 - 240).(2.pi/60)]/8 rad/s^2
= - 3.927 rad/s^2
Use equation of motion: v = u + at
with v = 0 rad/s, u = 240 x 2.pi/60 rad/s =25.133 rad/s, a = -3.927 rad/s^2
hence, 0 = 25.133 + (-3.927)t
t = 6.4 s
