A circular coil of radius and moment of inertia is placed in a uniform magnetic field . The coil is free to rotate about its axis, which is perpendicular to the magnetic field. If a current (current, not moment of inertia) is suddenly started in the coil, what is the initial angular acceleration of the coil just after the current is started?

A composite disc is built from a solid disc and a concentric, thick-walled hoop, as shown below. The inner disc has mass 4 kg and radius 2 m. The outer disc (thick-walled) has mass 5 kg, inner radius 2 m, and outer radius 3 m. The two discs spin together and complete one revolution every 3 s. Calculate the system's angular momentum about its central axis.
