1. A centrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at a constant angular speed of 3950 rpm (rotations per minute). The centrifuge's moment of inertia is 0.0425 kg-m'. When switched off, it rotates 20.0 times in the clockwise direction before coming to rest. a. Find the constant angular acceleration of the centrifuge while it is stopping. b. How long does the centrifuge take to come to rest? c. What torque is exerted on the centrifuge to stop its rotation? d. How much work is done on the centrifuge to stop its rotation?
