Question
A bus contains a 1420 kg flywheel (a disk that has a 0.64 m radius) and has a total mass of 10600 kg.
m = 1420 kg
r = 0.64 m
mt = 10600 kg
v1 = 18 m/s
v2 = 3.15 m/s
Calculate the

- A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 189-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 1.12 x 10⁹ J of energy. How fast would a 48.7-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.290 m have to rotate to store this much energy? Give your answer in rev/min.

The blade rotates around its center at an angular velocity of 500 re. The end of the blade hits a 0.25 kg croquet ball (point mass), and the ball sticks to the blade. min Before the collision, the ball was stationary. After the collision, the ball will be moving at the same angular velocity as the blade at a distance of half of the blade length from the axis of rotation. Treat the blade as a rod rotating around its center. The final angular velocity of the lawnmower blade and croquet ball combo is rad Sarrow_forward
