1. Calculate the torque on the rod in Nm. 2. Assume the moment of inertia of the rod around the axis is I=1.6 kg*m^2 and we now apply a constant torque of 2Nm to the rod. Calculate the angular acceleration of the rod. Report the angular acceleration in units of rad/s^2 3. Convert your answer from question 2 to units of degrees/ s^2 4. Assume the same rod starts out from rest and experiences a constant angular acceleration of 2.5 rad/s^2. What is the angular speed 5 seconds after the acceleration has started? Report your result in units of rad/s 5. Assume the moment of inertia of the rod around the axis of rotation in the center of the rod is I= 1.5 kg*m^2 and the mass of the rod is 30kg. Suppose you shift the axis of rotation to the end of the rod, such that the distance from the axis to where the force is applied is increased from r=0.4m to r=0.8m (twice as much). Use the parallel axis Theron to calculate the moment of Interia around the new axis in units of kg*m^2.

Assume you have a solid rod with an axis of rotation as shown below. A force of 20 N is applied as F = 20 N r = 0.4 m Y = 125 degrees shown in the picture. Co Axis of rotation 12 Ro
