The following figure shows a free-body diagram of a car wheel. The mass of the wheel is 8.5 kg and its radius is 0.2 m. The downwards force at G includes the weight of the wheel and the downwards force from the driving axle. The radius of gyration of the wheel is 0.1291 m. Y 205 N.m G 940 N 2500 N X B Ff 2500 N If F, is 960 N, the angular acceleration of the wheel is: The following figure shows a free-body diagram of a car wheel.
