- A playground merry-go-round of radius R = 2.00 m has a moment of inertia I = 250 kg · m2 and is rotating at 10.0 rev/min about a frictionless, vertical axle. Facing the axle, a 25.0-kg child hops onto the merry-go-round and manages to sit down on the edge. What is the new angular speed of the merry-go-round?arrow_forwardA girl of mass 31.8 kg stands on the rim of a frictionless merry-go-round of radius 1.63 m and rotational inertia 313 kg-m2 that is not moving. She throws a rock of mass 948 g horizontally in a direction that is tangent to the outer edge of the merry-go-round. The speed of the rock, relative to the ground, is 3.26 m/s. Afterward, what are (a) the angular speed of the merry-go-round and (b) the linear speed of the girl?

The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round about its axis of rotation is 150 kgm2. The child catches a ball of mass 1.0 kg travelling at 16 m/s at an angle Ø=37º thrown by a friend. If the merry-go-round starts at rest, what is the angular speed of the merry-go-round just after the ball is caught.arrow_forward
- A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 131-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 3.01 x 10 J of energy. How fast would a 38.5-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.597 m have to rotate to store this much energy? Give your answer in rev/min.

A girl of mass 43.5 kg is standing at the edge of the carousel, which is rotating with an angular speed of 3.20 rad/s. Now the girl walks toward the center of the carousel and stops at a certain distance from the center d. The angular speed of the carousel is now 5.0 rad/s. How far from the center, in meters, did the girl stop? marrow_forward

(a) angular position of the door ?(0) = rad ?(1.50) = rad (b) angular speed of the door ?(0) = rad/s ?(1.50) = rad/s (c) angular acceleration of the door ?(0) = rad/s2 ?(1.50) = rad/s2arrow_forwardThree children are riding on the edge of a merry‑go‑round that has a mass of 105 kg and a radius of 1.70 m . The merry‑go‑round is spinning at 20.0 rpm. The children have masses of 22.0, 28.0, and 33.0 kg. If the 28.0 kg child moves to the center of the merry‑go‑round, what is the new angular velocity in revolutions per minute? Ignore friction, and assume that the merry‑go‑round can be treated as a solid disk and the children as point masses. final angular velocity: rpmarrow_forward
