1. A wheel is rotating with an angular speed of
. It is stopped to rest by applying a constant torque in
. If the moment of inertia of the wheel about its axis is 0.20 kg-m 2 , then the work done by the torque in two seconds will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
rad / sec ,
So angular retardation 
Now angular speed after 2 sec
=
rad / sec
Work done by torque in 2 sec = loss in kinetic energy =

= 30 J .
