You are helping to design a new fire escape for your third-floor apartment. You step out the window onto a crossbar
that is attached to a rope, which in turn is wound around a massive solid cylindrical flywheel that can turn on its axis.
As you fall at increasing speed, the rope causes the flywheel to turn at increasing angular velocity. Your task is to
choose a flywheel that will enable you to move at a safe 2.0 m/s when you reach 10 m below your starting position.
Your mass is 80 kg. Determine the rotational inertia and mass of the uniform 0.80 m radius flywheel you need to
buy.
