Length of the cord..........................................................
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The moment of inertia is 
The final angular speed is 
The time taken is 
The initial angular speed is 
Generally the average angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
Generally the torque is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
If velocity is decreasing, then acceleration is in the direction
opposite to the velocity.
If the object is moving in the direction that you call 'positive',
then acceleration is negative.
