Uniform solid disk with a tangential force applied to its outer rim
A uniform solid disk of mass \(2.0\text{ kg}\) and radius \(0.50\text{ m}\) is mounted on a frictionless, fixed horizontal axle passing through its center. A light cord wrapped around the outer rim of the disk is pulled with a constant tension force of \(6.0\text{ N}\) tangential to the rim. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the disk?
