title: "A student is asked to design an experiment to determine the change in angular momentum of a disk that rotates about its center and the product of the average torque applied to the disk and the time interval in which the torque is exerted. A net force is applied tangentially to the surface of the disk. The rotational inertia of the disk about its center is I = MR”. Which two of the following quantities should the student measure to determine the change in angular momentum of the disk after 10 s? Select two answers."

A student is asked to design an experiment to determine the change in angular momentum of a disk that rotates about its center and the product of the average torque applied to the disk and the time interval in which the torque is exerted. A net force is applied tangentially to the surface of the disk. The rotational inertia of the disk about its center is \(I = MR^2\). Which two of the following quantities should the student measure to determine the change in angular momentum of the disk after 10 s? Select two answers.

- **A.** The magnitude of the net force exerted on the disk
- **B.** The distance between the center of the disk and where the net force is applied to the disk
- **C.** The radius of the disk
- **D.** The mass of the disk
