Notice that even though both objects have the same mass and the same outer radius, they have
different moments of inertia because their shapes are different! The ring will resist more when we try to
‘change its angular velocity than the disk wl.3. Im this lab, the
will be a mass, hanging from a string The mass will be accelerating
downwards. Draw the free-body diagram for this mass and find an expression forthe tension T
In the string asa function of the mass m, acceleration a and gravitational acceleration g. Report
