Fly Wheel Moment Calc.
For quick reference, what are the equations for calculating the moment of a fly wheel? (A disk of mass, not just a weight on a stick, if that matters). I know that there are other things too, like bearing load/friction, drag, etc. Am I missing anything?
And how would I calculate the energy lost if I was to, say, use it to be momentarily loaded with a foam ball? (This may be too much for simple calculations, I'll guess and test if I have to.) Thanks!
