To solve the problem of finding the moment of inertia of the flywheel, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between kinetic energy and moment of inertia The change in kinetic energy (ΔKE) of a rotating object is given by the formula: \[ \Delta KE = \frac{1}{2} I \omega_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} I \omega_i^2 \] where: ...
