Problem

2. A cylinder rotates with constant angular acceleration about a fixed axis. The cylinder's moment of inertia about the axis is 4 kg m24 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2}. At time t=0\mathrm{t}=0 the cylinder is at rest. At time t=2\mathrm{t}=2 seconds its angular velocity is 1 radian per second. What is the angular momentum of the cylinder at time t=2\mathrm{t}=2 seconds? (A) 1 kg m2/s1 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2} / \mathrm{s} (B) 2 kg m2/s2 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2} / \mathrm{s} (C) 3 kg m2/s3 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2} / \mathrm{s} (D) 4 kg m2/s4 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2} / \mathrm{s} (E) It cannot be determined without knowing the radius of the cylinder.
