Concept explainers
To find: The torque that is required to produce acceleration.
Answer to Problem 36P
The force value is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A teenager pushes tangentially on a small hand-driven merry-go-round and is able to accelerate it from rest to a frequency of
Formula used:
Here,
Calculation:
Frequency of rotation
Time taken
Radius of merry go round
Mass of merry go ground
Mass of two children
The moment of inertia for the system of merry go round and Children
The torque required from
Therefore, the Torque is
The force required at the edge
Force
Conclusion:
The force value is
