A flywheel is a solid, rotating disk that is sometimes used to store energy. The moment of inertia for a solid disk is 1/2MR^2 where M is the mass and R is the radius. If a flywheel weighs 15kg and has a radius of 0.8m, determine the following. A) If a point on the outside of the disk is moving at 6 m/s, what is the angular velocity of the flywheel? B) If the flywheel starts from rest...
A rotating flywheel can be used as a method to store energy. If it has 2.00 x 106J of kinetic energy when rotating at 390 rads, and if a frictional torque of 4.00 Nm acts on the system, in what interval of time would the flywheel come to rest? 171 min 2 560 min 26.3 min 42.7 min
One way to store energy is in the rotational motion of a flywheel, and some have proposed using such technology to power automobiles. One unit is based on a 6.0-kg flywheel in the shape of a hoop of radius 0.11 m that spins as fast as 70000 rpm ▼ Part A How much kinetic energy is stored by the flywheel when it is rotating at its maximum rate? Express your answer to two significant figures and include appropriate units. alue...
An initially installed flywheel can store 10 J of kinetic energy when rotating at 300 rad/s. It is replaced by another flywheel of the same size but made of a stronger material. If its mass is the same as that of the original, and it is now capable of achieving a rotational speed of 425 rad/s, what maximum energy can be stored? 2.01E+6J O 1.66E+3J O 1.73E+5 J O 1.00E+6J
In your job as a mechanical engineer you are designing a flywheel and clutch-plate system like the one in (Figure 1). Disk A is made of a lighter material than disk B, and the moment of inertia of disk A about the shaft is one-third that of disk B. The moment of inertia of the shaft is negligible. With the clutch disconnected, A is brought up to an angular speed ω0; B is initially at rest. The accelerating torque is...
