Physics 01 Module 08 Sample Problem 04 Sample on flywheel, energy total
Sample
The flywheel of an engine has moment of inertia 2.50 kg.m2 about its rotation axis.
a) What constant torque is required to bring it up to an angular speed of 400 rev/min in 8.0 s, starting from rest?
b) What is its final kinetic energy?
