A horizontal force of magnitude 6.5 N is exerted tangentially on a Frisbee of mass 32 grams and radius 14.3 cm. Assuming the Frisbee, a uniform disk, is originally at rest and the force is exerted for 0.08 s, determine the angular velocity of rotation about the central axis when the Frisbee is released
