A chain pulls tangentially on a 40.6-kg uniform cylindrical gear with a tension of 72.5 N. The chain is attached along the outside radius of the gear at 0.650 m from the axis of rotation. Starting from rest, the gear takes 1.70 s to reach its rotational speed of 1.35 rev/s. What is the total frictional torque opposing the rotation of the gear?
