(a) An automatic stamping machine stamps out components at the rate of one
every half second. The torque required at the motor is 10Nm for 0.2s followed by
1.0 Nm for 0.3s and the variation with time is repeated every half second. Given
that the mean operating speed of the motor is 3000 RPM, determine the mean
power of the motor. (b) A flywheel is fixed to the motor shaft in order to limit the speed fluctuations
to 1.0%. Determine the moment of inertia of the flywheel, given that the
moment of inertia of the remainder of the machine is negligible.
