Child A applies a force of 30N tangent to the edge of the disc to cause it to rotate counter clockwise. Child B also applies a force of 20N tangent to the edge of the disc to cause it to counter clockwise. The net torque applied to the disc causes an angular acceleration of 8.33rad/s^2. a) What is the moment of inertia of the solid plastic disc? (answer: 0.6kgm^2) b) What is the mass of the solid plastic disc?

- A tank of water has been outdoors in cold weather, and a slab of ice 4.8 cm thick has formed on its surface (see the figure). The air above the ice is at -7.4°C. Calculate the rate of formation of ice (in centimeters per hour) on the ice slab. Take the thermal conductivity of ice to be 0.0040 cal/s-cm-C, its density to be 0.92 g/cm2, and its latent heat of fusion to be 333 kJ/kg. Assume no energy transfer through the tank walls or bottom.
