Two people sit opposite each other on the edge of a rotating disk of radius, R, and negligible mass. One person has a mass of 40kg, the other of 50kg. The disk is rotating at 30 revs/min. What is the rotational kinetic energy if R=1.5m?

Rotational Kinetic Energy (KE) = (1/2) x Moment of Inertia (I) x (Angular Velocity (w) ) 2 I=SUM(MR 2 ) = 40 x (1.5) 2 + 50 x (1.5) 2 = 90 x (1.5) 2 = 202.5 kgm 2 w= 30 revs / min = 30 x (2π/60) = π (rad/s)K...
