A flywheel is a uniform disc of mass 72 kg and 50 cm. When it is rotating at the rate of 70 rpm its kinetic energy is

a
142J
b
242J
c
342J
d
300J

detailed solution

Correct option is B

K.E.=12Iω2The moment of inertia of flywheelI=MR2/2∴ K.E.=12×MR22×(2πv)2=π2MR2v2=(3⋅14)2×72×(0⋅5)2×(70/60)2=242J
