Question

Two wheels of M.I.3kg m2 and 5kg m2 are rotating at the rate of 600 rpm and 800 rpm respectively in the same direction. If the two are coupled so as to rotate with the same axis of rotation, the resultant speed of rotation will be (in rpm)
  1. 725
  2. 850
  3. 420
  4. 630

A
725
B
850
C
420
D
630
Solution
Verified by Toppr

by conservation of angular momentum
Iω=I1ω1+I2ω2
(3+5)ω=3×600+5×800=5800
ω=725rpm

Two flywheels A and B are mounted side by side with frictionless bearings on a common shaft. Their moments of inertia are 5 kgm2 and 20 kgm2 respectively. Wheel A is made to rotate at 10 revolutions per second. Wheel B, initially stationary is now coupled to A with the help of a clutch. The rotational speed of the wheels will become:
