Rotational dynamics about a fixed axis: In an experiment, a student brings up the rotational speed of a piece of laboratory apparatus to 30.0 rpm. She then allows the apparatus to slow down uniformly on its own, and counts 240 revolutions before the apparatus comes to a stop. The moment of inertia of the apparatus is known to be 0.0850 kg ∙ m2. What is the magnitude of the retarding torque on the apparatus?
A) 0.0425 N ∙ m
B) 0.159 N ∙ m
C) 0.0787 N ∙ m
D) 0.000278 N ∙ m
E) 0.0000136 N ∙ m
