In a machine the intermittent operation demand the torque to be applied as follows. During the first half revolution, the torque increases uniformly from 800 N-m to 300 N-m. During next one revolution the torque remains constant. During next one revolution, the torque decreases uniformly from 3000 N-m to 800 N-m. During last 1\frac{1}{2} revolution, the torque remains constant.
Thus a cycle is completed in 4 revolution. The motor to which the machine is coupled exerts a constant torque at a mean speed of 250RPM. A flywheel of mass 1800kg and radius of gyration of 500mm is fitted to the shaft. Determine i) the power of the motor; ii) the total fluctuation of speed of the machine shaft.
