The rotor of a gas turbine is rotating at a speed of 6000 rpm when the turbine is shut down. It is observed that 4 minutes time is required for the rotor to coast to rest. Assuming uniformly accelerated motion, determine (a) the angular acceleration, and (b)number of revolutions that the rotor executes before coming to rest. (no figure is needed for this problem).
