    Flywheel Inertia: Fixed Internal Quantity?

    Basically, for a standard flywheel (heavy Metal disc), Is its moment of inertia a fixed internal quantity for that flywheel which doesn't change dependent on angular velocity etc?

    Conservation of energy flywheel experiment

    Thats correct. So does that mean that because the mass still has kinetic energy when it hits the floor, some is converted into sound etc and not all into rotational energy of the flywheel?

    Conservation of energy flywheel experiment

    Hi Ive recently carried out an experiment where different masses are hung from a string and then dropped from the same height. The other end of the string is wrapped around the axle of a flywheel and when the mass hits the ground, the time for ten revolutions of the flywheel is calculated to...

    Engineering How Do Voltage Polarity and Thevenin's Theorem Affect Circuit Measurements?

    I would really appreciate if someone could clear this up for me. Basically, with the first one (link below), we are told to set the source (Vs) to 6v and then measure the voltage across each resistor. It however says in the question to make sure the polarities of the measured quantities are...
