Question
Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that is a disk of mass 96 kg, radius 1.1 m, and is spinning at 22 rpm. The children have masses of 20.4 kg, 26 kg, and 35 kg.
M = 96 kg
m1 = 20.4 kg
m2 = 26 kg
m3 = 35 kg
r = 1.1 m
f = 22 rpm
A. What is the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round plus the children in kg⋅m2?
B. If the child who has a mass of 26 moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new moment of inertia in kg⋅m2?
C. If the child who has a mass of 26 kg moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new magnitude of
