Stopping angle under constant resisting torque

ID: stopping-angle-under-constant-resisting-torque

A rigid body's axial moment of inertia and a constant resisting torque give constant angular acceleration . Hence and the angular displacement is the displayed expression. Equivalently, the lost rotational kinetic energy equals the resisting work . The total number of revolutions is ; the number of whole revolutions completed is its floor function.
