Question

The original ferris wheel had a radius of 38.0 m and a mass of 1,900,000 kg. Assume that all of its mass was distributed along the rim of the wheel. --if the wheel was initially rotating at .050 rev/min, what constant torque had to be applied to bring it to a full stop in 30.0 s? --what force exerted on the rim of the wheel would have given such a torque? --what avg power is dissipated during the time the ferris wheel is being brought to rest? Please show every step with calculations. if you can post an image of your work that would be great. thanks!

Explanation / Answer

T=I
I=mr^2/2
=w/30

w=0.05*2*3.14/60
b)T=F*r

r is the radius of rim

c)avg power=energy/time

energy=0.5Iw^2

time=w/
