    Rotational Kinetic Energy of a flywheel

    Problem: An experimental flywheel, used to store energy and replace an automobile engine, is a solid disk of mass 200.0 kg and radius 0.40 m. (a) What is it's rotational inertia? (my calculation says 16 kg.m) (b) When driving at 22.4 m/s (50 mph), the fully energized flywheel is rotating at...

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    Hi Tiny -Tim, I didn't see the previous note matching the two equations. I have actually gotten to there but thought it was wrong - when maybe it's just I thought it stopped there. Am I right with (w*r)^2/r = 3.45...is it rads? How do I put that into F=ma?

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    I'm not seeing it. I only see a in terms that have t (time) and I don't have t. or in terms with F net or N and I don't have those do I?

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    N would be the weight of the coin or m * a? accel is v^2/r?

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    why is ω - 1.11 π rad/s? thought it is accel? Do you mean the formula a=v^2/r ?

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    N is the pull inward? but there is friction holding it on the turntable. acceleration is the 1.11 pi rad/s? (I'm really struggling with this and appreciate your help)

    Calculating the Maximum Radius of a Rotating Turntable Before a Coin Slips Off

    My problem is: A coin is placed on a turntable that is rotating at 33.3 rpm. If the coefficient of static friction is .1, how far from the center of the turntable can the coin be placed without having to slip off? Am I correct with V= the 33.3 rpms? and that w (angular speed) =1.11 pi...
