Problem 3 (10 pts) 6.11 An operating turbine is having a problem. The emergency brake is applied, bringing the rotor to a stop in one second. The turbine has a rotor diameter of 80 m. The tower height is also 80 m. The mass of the rotor is 35.000 kg. The turbine is running at 20 rpm before being stopped. Estimate the overturning moment at the base of the tower due to the application of the brake. Use the impulse-mouentum deorem, and assume that all die mass is concentrated al a distance equal to one half of the radius from the center of the rotor
