[QUOTE="wcorey, post: 5684086, member: 77336"] Assuming I understand your point… The change in stored energy is squared by the change in diameter but only doubled by the change in rpm, one is logarithmic and the other linear. So when the wheel is twice the diameter and half the speed, the larger diameter results in a fourfold increase in stored energy but the corresponding lower rpm only decreases it by half. [/QUOTE]
