    A wheel having moment of inertia \[\text{2 kg}-{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]about its vertical axis, rotates at the rate of 60rpm about this axis. The torque which can stop the wheel's rotation in one minute would be:                       

    A) \[\frac{2\pi }{15}\text{N-m}\]           

    B) \[\frac{\pi }{12}\text{N-m}\]             

    C) \[\frac{\pi }{15}\text{N-m}\]

    D) \[\frac{\pi }{18}\text{N-m}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

            Given: \[I=2kg-{{m}^{2}},\,\,{{\omega }_{0}}=\frac{60}{60}\times 2\pi \,rad/s,\] \[\omega =0,\,\,t=60\,s\] The torque required to stop the wheel?s rotation is \[\tau =I\,\alpha =I\left( \frac{{{\omega }_{0}}-\omega }{t} \right)\] \[\therefore \]          \[\tau =\frac{2\times 2\pi \times 60}{60\times 60}=\frac{\pi }{15}\text{N-m}\]
