Motion of a flywheel
Answers
Answer:
A flywheel is a mechanical device which stores energy in the form of rotational momentum. Torque can be applied to a flywheel to cause it to spin, increasing its rotational momentum. This stored momentum can then be used to apply torque to any rotating object, most commonly machinery or motor vehicles.

How does a fly wheel rotate?
The inbuilt motor uses electrical power to turn at high speeds to set the flywheel turning at its operating speed. This results in the storage of kinetic energy. When energy is required, the motor functions as a generator, because the flywheel transfers rotational energy
What drives a fly wheel?
Flywheel energy storage uses electric motors to drive the flywheel to rotate at a high speed so that the electrical power is transformed into mechanical power and stored, and when necessary, flywheels drive generators to generate power.
