Problem

A flywheel with moment of inertia 0.40 kg⋅m20.40\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^2 accelerates from 10 rad s−110\,\text{rad}\,\text{s}^{-1} to 40 rad s−140\,\text{rad}\,\text{s}^{-1} while turning through exactly 15 revolutions. Determine the magnitude of the constant torque that produced this change.
