Expert Answer:
A flywheel is a rotating mechanical device that is used to store rotational energy.
It has a significant moment of inertia and thus resist changes in rotational speed.
It provides continuous energy when the energy source discontinuous.
USE IN AUTOMOBILE:
It stores energy for a particular interval of time.
It absorbs fluctuations.
It ensures uniform and smooth running of the engine.
