How can I find the frictional torque in this moment of inertia lab?

[Erickimiscool]

Homework Statement

How much frictional torque is there? I know angular acceleration and torque applied. (I do not know if this can be used to find torque friction, though.)

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

I know that Frictional torque can be found by doing Torque net - Torque applied. But I do not have torque net, which is another part of the lab where I use the frictional torque found to find the torque net.

The net external torque of a rigid body is equal to the product of the angular acceleration and moment of inertia of that body.

So, I cannot directly calculate the frictional torque in this case. However, I can use the given information of angular acceleration and torque applied to find the moment of inertia of the system. The moment of inertia is a measure of an object's resistance to rotational motion and is related to the object's mass and distribution of mass. Once the moment of inertia is determined, it can be used to calculate the torque net and then the frictional torque can be found using the equation mentioned above. Alternatively, if the angular acceleration and torque applied are constant, the equation T = Iα can be used, where T is the net torque, I is the moment of inertia, and α is the angular acceleration. By rearranging this equation, we can find the moment of inertia and then use it to calculate the frictional torque.
