Question
The rotor of a gas turbine is rotating at a speed of 6900 rpm when the
turbine is shut down. It is observed that 4 min is required for the rotor to
coast to rest. Assuming uniformly accelerated motion, determine (a) the
angular acceleration, (b) the number of revolutions that the rotor
executes before coming to rest.
alpha = -1625 rev s^-2; theta = 4600 rev
alpha = -1725 rev s^-2; theta = 13800 rev
alpha = -1825 rev s^-2; theta = 41400 rev
None of the choices
