    Moment of Inertia of a grinding wheel

    I have the same problem but with different numbers. When I use the equations you guys are using, though, I keep getting 13.4 kg*m^2, which is not correct. Could you help me? A grinding wheel is initially at rest. A constant external torque of 51.9 N· m is applied to the wheel for 18.8 s...
