Rotational and Translational Equilibrium
A disk of moment of inertia I rotates with a constant angular velocity ω about a frictionless axle. A constant force F is applied to the disk in a direction perpendicular to the axle. Which of the following statements is true?
A
The disk maintains rotational equilibrium but not translational
B
Both rotational and translational equilibrium are maintained
C
The force creates a torque that changes the angular momentum
D
The disk’s angular velocity must change due to the force
