A large wooden turntable in the shape of a flat uniform disk has a radius of 2.00 m and a total mass of 140 kg . The turntable is initially rotating at 3.00 rad/s about a vertical axis through its center. Suddenly, a 80.0-kg parachutist makes a soft landing on the turntable at a point near the outer edge.
A. Find the angular speed of the turntable after the parachutist lands. (Assume that you can treat the parachutist as a particle.
B. Compute the kinetic energy of the system before the parachutist lands.
C. Compute the kinetic energy of the system after the parachutist lands.
D. Why are these kinetic energies not equal?

Consider a turntable to be a circular disk of moment of inertia 0.142 kg⋅m2 rotating at a constant angular velocity 4.80 rad/s2 around an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the disk (the disk's "primary axis of symmetry"). The axis of the disk is vertical and the disk is supported by frictionless bearings. The motor of the turntable is off, so there is no external torque being applied to the axis. Another disk (a record) is...
A turntable has a radius R and mass M (considered as a disk) and is rotating at an angular velocity W 0 about a frictionless vertical axis. A piece of clay is tossed onto the turntable and sticks d from the rotational axis. The clay hits with horizontal vel ocity component vc at right angle to the turntable’s radius, and in a direction that opposes the rotation. After the clay lands, the turntable has slowed to angular velocity W1 ....
A turntable has a radius of 0.80 m and a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg m2. The turntable is rotating with an angular velocity of 1.5 rad/s about a vertical axis though its center on frictionless bearings. A very small 0.40-kg ball is projected horizontally toward the turntable axis with a velocity of 3.0 m/s. The ball is caught by a very small and very light cup-shaped mechanism on the rim of the turntable (see figure). a) What is the...
A frictionless pulley has the shape of a uniform solid disk of mass 2.40 kg and radius 10 cm. A 1.20 kg stone is attached to a very light wire that is wrapped around the rim of the pulley (the figure ), and the system is released from rest. Part A How far must the stone fall so that the pulley has 4.80 J of kinetic energy? Part B What percent of the total kinetic energy does the pulley have?
6_1. A majorette in a parade is performing some acrobatic
twirlings of her baton. Assume that the baton is a uniform rod of
mass 0.120 kg and length 80.0 cm.

A merry-go-round, which may be approximated as a solid disk of
mass 90.0 kg and radius 2.00 m, is originally at rest but free to
rotate in the horizontal plane about its center. A child applies an
external force of 20.0 N tangentially to the outer edge of the
merry-go-round, for a duration of 15.0 s.

(b) What is the average power supplied by the child in the
process?
