The net total torque of 51.5 N · m on a wheel rotating around an axis through its center is due to an applied force and a frictional torque at the axle. Starting from rest, the wheel reaches an angular speed of 13.2 rad/s in 5.00 s. At t = 5.00 s, the applied force is removed, and the frictional torque brings the wheel to a stop in 40.0 s.
(c) What is the total number of revolutions the wheel undergoes during this 45.0-s interval?
