(e) How long does it take for the disk to go around once?
Time to go around once =
S
ENERGY
(f) If you were to do a lot of algebra to calculate the kinetic energies before and after the collision, you would find
that the total kinetic energy just after the collision is less than the total kinetic energy just before the collision. Where
has most of this energy gone?
Increased thermal energy of the disk and child.
Increased translational kinetic energy of the disk.
Increased chemical energy in the child.
МОМENTUМ
(g) What was the speed of the child just after the collision?
V =

(h) What was the speed of the center of mass of the disk just after the collision?
Vcm
m/s
(i) What was the magnitude of the linear momentum of the disk just after the collision?
kgÂ-m/s
(j) Calculate the change in linear momentum of the system consisting of the child plus the disk (but not including the
axle), from just before to just after impact, due to the impulse applied by the axle. Take the x axis to be in the
direction of the initial velocity of the child.
Apx = Px,f - Px,i =
kgÂ-m/s
ANGULAR MOMENTUM
(k) The child on the disk walks inward on the disk and ends up standing at a new location a distance R/2 = 1.1 m
from the axle. Now what is the angular speed? (It helps to do this analysis algebraically and plug in numbers at the
end.)
