Problem

A student compares two identical solid disks, each of mass MM. Disk A has radius RR, while Disk B has radius 2R2R. The same constant tangential force FF is applied at the rim of each disk. Neglecting any friction, which of the following best describes the ratio of the resulting angular accelerations αB/αA\alpha_B/\alpha_A? a) 22 b) 14\dfrac14 c) 12\dfrac12 d) 11
