Treat both kids as point masses. The merry-go-round is a uniform disk with a mass of 97.5 kg and a radius of 1.25 meters, which is free to rotate about its center of mass without friction. The moment of inertia of a solid disk rotating about its center of mass is given by I = MR2 /2 , and the moment of inertia of a point mass is given by I = mr2 . The merry go round is initially rotating at 12.5 revolutions per minute (rpm). a) If both kids walk to the center of the merry-go-round, what will the final angular speed be, in rpm?
