So, corresponding sides and corresponding angles of congruent figures have the same measures. The measures of corresponding angles in similar figures are the same, but the measures of corresponding sides in similar figures are multiples of each other (i.e. they are proportional).
An industrial flywheel. A flywheel is a rotating mechanical device that is used to store rotational energy. Flywheels have an inertia called the moment of inertia and thus resist changes in rotational speed. The amount of energy stored in a flywheel is proportional to the square of its rotational speed. Energy is transferred to a flywheel by the application of a torque to it, thereby increasing its rotational speed, and hence its stored energy. Conversely, a flywheel releases stored energy by applying torque to a mechanical load, thereby decreasing the flywheel's rotational speed.
Flywheels are typically found on vehicles equipped with manual transmissions, while flexplates are used in vehicles with automatic transmissions. A manual transmission has a flywheel that is attached to the crankshaft and has a clutch disk in between the pressure plate and flywheel.When the clutch pedal is depressed, the throw out bearing is pushed in, which forces the pressure plate to stop applying pressure to the clutch disk.irst, here are some of their similarities: 1  Both are circular in nature and are mounted to the engine crankshaft. 2  Both have a toothed ring gear that engages with the starter. 3  Both serve as the link that marries the transmission to the engine.
