Chapter 12, Problem 68PQ

Lara is running just outside the circumference of a carousel, looking for her favorite horse to ride, with a constant angular speed of 1.00 rad/s. Just as she spots the horse, one-fourth of the circumference ahead of her, the carousel begins to move, accelerating from rest at 0.050 rad/s2. a. Taking the time when the carousel begins to move as t = 0, when will Lara catch up to the horse? b. Lara mistakenly passes the horse and keeps running at constant angular speed. If the carousel continues to accelerate at the same rate, when will the horse draw even with Lara again?

Cheryl is riding on the edge of a merry-go-round, 2m from the center, which is rotating with an increasing angular speed. Cheryl’s tangential acceleration is 3.0m/s2. At the instant that Cheryl’s linear speed is 4.0m/s, what is Cheryl’s total acceleration?
The ability of the human eye to rapidly rotate was studied using contact lenses fitted with accelerometers. While a subject, whose eyeball has radius 1.25 cm, watches a moving object her eyeball rotates through 20.0° in a time interval of 69.6 ms. a. What is the magnitude of the average angular velocity of the eye?  asnwer in rad/s b. Assume that the eye starts at rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration during the first half of the interval, and then the rotation slows with a constant angular acceleration during the second half until it comes to rest. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the eye? answer in rad/s^2 c. What tangential acceleration would the contact-lens accelerometers record in this case? answer in m/s^2
