No. of revolution =
Pic value is (3000/60)x10 = 500.
At the end of rotation it's 0 (zero).
So average is (500+0)/2 = 250.

Average speed during deceleration is (3000 + 0)/2 = 1500 RPM.
Answer is 1500 rev/min * (1 min/60 sec) * 10 sec = 250 revolutions.
Answer is 1500 rev/min * (1 min/60 sec) * 10 sec = 250 revolutions.

3000/12 = 250,
1minute = 12rpm.
1minute = 12rpm.
