Flywheels are used to smooth out fluctuating torques such as produced on the crank of piston engines. The diagram shows a torque - angle diagram for a certain machine. The speed of the shaft must be maintained between 490 and 510 rev/min. Calculate the moment of inertia of a suitable flywheel. Calculate the mass required if the radius of gyration is to be 0.3 m.
