operating machine more uniform. Flywheels are used in most combustion piston engines.
Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy in a flywheel can be expressed as
Ef = 1/2 I ω2 (1)
where
I = k m r2 (2)

The weight of the wheel with the tire is 2.3 kg and the inertial constant is k = 1.
The speed of the bicycle is 25 km/h (6.94 m/s). The wheel circular velocity (rps,
revolutions/s) - nrps - can be calculated as
= 3.32 revolutions/s
= 20.9 rad/s
The kinetic energy of the rotating bicycle wheel can then be calculated to
= 47.9 J
