A net torque is applied to the edge of a spinning object as it rotates about its internal axis. The table shows the net torque exerted on the object at different instants in time. How can a student use the data table to determine the change in angular momentum of the object from \( 0 \) to \( 6 \) \( \text{s} \)? Justify your selection.
| Time \( (\text{s}) \) | Net Torque \( (\text{N} \cdot \text{m}) \) |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 1.5 |
| 4 | 3.0 |
| 6 | 4.5 |
A pulley has an initial angular speed of \( 12.5 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) and a constant angular acceleration of \( 3.41 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \). Through what angle does the pulley turn in \( 5.26 \) \( \text{s} \)?

A block of mass \( 4.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) rests on an inclined plane. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane \( \mu_s \) is \( 0.4 \). Which of the following gives the angle of inclination at which the block will start to slide?

Two wires support an unknown mass as shown in the diagram. The tension in the left wire is measured to be \( 17.5 \) \( \text{N} \) and the tension in the right wire is \( 30.3 \) \( \text{N} \).

A small rock sits at the bottom of a cup filled with water. The upward force exerted by the water on the rock is \( F_0 \). The water is then poured out and replaced by an oil that is \( \frac{3}{4} \) as dense as water, and the rock again sits at the bottom of the cup, completely under the oil. Which of the following expressions correctly represents the magnitude of the upward force exerted by the oil on the rock?

A compressed spring mounted on a disk can project a small ball. When the disk is not rotating, as shown in the top view above, the ball moves radially outward. The disk then rotates in a counterclockwise direction as seen from above, and the ball is projected outward at the instant the disk is in the position shown above. Which of the following best shows the subsequent path of the ball relative to the ground?
