Answer

$T=12s$

Work Step by Step

We know that $T=2\pi\sqrt\frac{I}{K}$................ eq(1) Also, $K=\frac{T}{\theta}=\frac{0.20}{0.85}=0.235\frac{N.m}{rad}$ and $I=\frac{2}{5}mR^2$ Thus, after substituting these in equation(1), the equation (1) becomes $T=2\pi\sqrt\frac{\frac{2}{5}mR^2}{K}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $T=2(3.1416)\sqrt\frac{\frac{2}{5}(95)(0.15)^2}{0.235}$ $T=12s$
