Period: Time it takes to complete a cycle, it takes 0.5s to complete a cycle
Frequency: Number of cycles in a second. Since 0.5s = 1 cycle, 1s=2 cycles
Period is 0.5s, frequency is 2
The answer is 4.0 kg since the flywheel comes to rest the
kinetic energy of the wheel in motion is spent doing the work. Using the
formula KE = (1/2) I w².
Given the following:
I = the moment of inertia about the
axis passing through the center of the wheel; w = angular velocity ; for the
solid disk as I = mr² / 2 so KE = (1/4) mr²w². Now initially, the wheel is spinning
at 500 rpm so w = 500 * (2*pi / 60) rad / sec = 52.36 rad / sec.
The radius = 1.2 m and KE = 3900 J
3900 J = (1/4) m (1.2)² (52.36)²
m = 3900 J / (0.25) (1.2)² (52.36)²
m = 3.95151 ≈ 4.00 kg
