A futuristic design for a car is to have a large flywheel within the car to store kinetic energy

The flywheel is a solid uniform disk of mass 370 kg with a radius of 0.50 m, and it can rotate up to Assuming all of this stored kinetic energy could be transferred to the car to change its linear speed of, find the maximum attainable speed of the car.
