Answer:

The flywheel rate of the flywheel is 4 revolutions per second.

Explanation:

From Rotation Physics we understand that flywheel rotates at constant rate. In this case, angular speed (
\dot n), measured in revolutions per second, is the number of revolutions done by the flywheel at a given interval of time. That is:


\dot n = (n)/(t) (Eq. 1)

Where:


n - Number of revolutions done, measured in revolutions.


t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that
n = 60\,rev and
t = 15\,s, then the angular speed of the flywheel is:


\dot n = (60\,rev)/(15\,s)


\dot n = 4\,(rev)/(s)

The flywheel rate of the flywheel is 4 revolutions per second.
