document.write( "Question 1128404: Consider a spinning CD which has a mass of 15.0 g. If the radius of the CD is 8.3 cm, and if it rotates about its centre at an angular frequency of 44.4 rad/s, what is its rotational kinetic energy (in J)? Assume the CD is a solid disk (i.e. ignore the hole in the center.). \n" ); document.write( "
