1) You are standing on a merry go round with a radius of 1.2 m. Your friend accelerates the merry go round from rest at a constant angular acceleration of 1.5 radians/s^2 A) After 4 seconds the merry go round abruptly stops and you fly off. Will your velocity be linear or angular? What direction is your velocity My guess is that your direction is linear, but I am not sure the direction of the velocity. B) What will be...
You are sitting on a merry-go-round of mass 200 kg and radius 2m that is at rest (not spinning). Your mass is 50 kg. Your friend pushes the edge of the merry go round with 100 N of force, applied at a 90 deg angle. (hint: the merry-go-round is a disk). a. How much torque did your friend apply? b. What is your angular acceleration if you are sitting in the middle of the merry-go-round? c. What is your angular...
A 50.0 kg child is on a 200.0 kg merry-go-round with a radius of 1.50 m. The child starts at 0.5 m from the center and moves to the edge. The child's parent accelerates the merry-go-round from rest at 0.75Td to a speed of 1.5 Fad How long did the parent push the merry-go-round? How much force is required to hold the child when at 0.5 m from the center? (This centripetal force could be from friction, holding on, or...
A child is standing on the edge of a merry-go-round, 1.5 m from the center. At t = 0 the child has a linear speed of 8.0 m/s. 12 seconds later the ride has slowed down and the child’s speed is now 3.0 m/s. What are the: a) Angular Acceleration b) Radial Acceleration at t = 12s c) Tangential Acceleration d) Magnitude of the Total Acceleration at t = 12s
A 90-kg merry-go-round of radius 2.0 m is spinning at a constant
speed of 20 revolutions per minute. A kid standing on the ground
decides to bring the merry-go-round to rest and applies a force of
10.0 N tangentially to the merry-go-round. If the merry-go-round is
modelled as a solid cylinder, (A) calculate its moment of inertia.
(B) What is the angular acceleration of the merry-go-round? (C) How
many revolutions will the merry-go-round complete until it finally
stops?

A playground merry-go-round has a radius of R = 4.0m and has a moment of inertia I_cm = 7.0 times 10^3 kg middot m^2 about an axis passing through the center of mass. There is negligible friction about its vertical axis. Two children each of mass m = 25kg are standing on opposite sides a distance r_0 = 3.0m from the central axis. The merry-go-round is initially at rest. A person on the ground applies a constant tangential force of...
Alex and Riley are two kids standing on a merry-go-round. Alex has half the mass of Riley and is standing at the very edge of the merry-go-round. Riley is standing halfway between the edge and the center of the merry-go-round. The merry-go-round is turning at a constant rate. Which of the following are true? (Select all that apply.) Alex has the larger moment of inertia on the merry-go-round. Riley has the greater angular velocity. Alex has the larger tangential...
A 25 kg boy stands 2.1 m from the center of a frictionless playground merry‐go‐round, which has a moment of inertia of 200 kg m2 and is spinning with one revolution every two seconds. The child moves inward to a radius of 1.5 m. a) What is the initial angular velocity of the merry‐go‐round? b) What is the new angular velocity of the merry‐go‐round, after the child moves? c) By how much did the kinetic energy of the merry‐go‐round increase?...
4. A 85-kg merry-go-round of radius 1.7 meters has a girl (with a mass of 32 kg) riding along on the outer edge. (4 pts.) What is the moment of inertia for the merry-go-round? (4 pts.) What is the moment of inertia for the girl? (3 pts.) What is the total moment of inertia? edge of the merry-go-round, applying a constant torque of 170 Nem. (3 pts.) What is the angular acceleration of the merry-go-round (and girl)? (3 pts.) What...
a certain merry go round is accelerated uniformly from rest and attains an angular speed of 1.2 rad/s in the first 18 seconds. the force which causes this change in angular speed is 1000 n and applied along the tangential line to the edge of the merry go round. if the radius is equal to 1.5 m what is the moment of inertia of the merry go round?
