Answer:
Explanation:
During the swing , the center of mass will go down due to which disc will lose potential energy which will be converted into rotational kinetic energy
mgh = 1/2 I ω² where m is mass of the disc , h is height by which c.m goes down which will be equal to radius of disc , I is moment of inertia of disc about the nail at rim , ω is angular velocity .
mgr = 1/2 x ( 1/2 m r²+ mr²) x ω²
gr = 1/2 x 1/2 r² x ω² + 1/2r² x ω²
g = 1 / 4 x ω² r + 1 / 2 x ω² r
g = 3 x ω² r/ 4
ω² = 4g /3 r
= 4 x 9.8 / 3 x .25
= 52.26
ω = 7.23 rad / s .
