There is a wind turbine that has three propeller blades (can be approximated as thin rods) that are 10.0kg in mass and 4.00m in length. The generator is not hooked up, so the blades can move freely. This means the only torque on the blades comes from the wind. The wind starts up and the blades go from rest to 3.00rad/s. a. What is the angular acceleration of the turbine blades? b. What is the moment of inertia (I) of...
