Question

You are designing a rotating metal flywheel that will be used to store energy. The flywheel is to be a uniform disk with radius 35.0 cm. Starting from rest at t = 0, the filywheel rotates with constant angular acceleration 3.00 rad/s about an axis perpendicular to the flywheel at its center

 

 If the flywheel has a density (mass per unit volume) of 8600 kg/m³, what thickness must it have to store 800 J of kometic energy at 8.00 s?
