Rotation: Angular Velocity Dynamics

Problem #: 2 | Variant #: 2

A 9.655 kg, 1.23 m wide rectangular piece of plywood is horizontally mounted in such a way that it can be spun about its center. There is a 2.778 N-m torque while it is rotating due to friction in the bearings. If it is set spinning at a rate of 82.9 rpm and takes 10 s to come to a stop, what is the length of the board?
