A high-speed flywheel in a motor is spinning at 450 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 37.0 kg and diameter 74.0 cm . The power is off for 26.0 s and during this time the flywheel slows due to friction in its axle bearings. During the time the power is off, the flywheel makes 170 complete revolutions.
