Question
A torque of 36.5 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result of a directed force combined with a friction force. As a result of the applied torque the angular speed of the wheel increases from 0 to 10.3 rad/s. After 6.10 s the directed force is removed, and the wheel comes to rest 60.6 s later.
(a) What is the wheel’s moment of inertia (in kg m2)? kg m
(b) What is the magnitude of the torque caused by friction (in N m)? N m
(c) From the time the directed force is initially applied, how many revolutions does the wheel go through?
______ revolutions

Answer:
Explanation:
t = Time = 6.1 s
I = Moment of inertia
From the kinematic equations of linear motion we have

t = 60.6 s
Frictional torque is given by
The magnitude of the torque caused by friction is
Speeding up
Slowing down
Total number of revolutions
The total number of revolutions the wheel goes through is
