Two children standing on opposite sides of a merry-go-round are trying to rotate it. They each push in opposite directions with forces of magnitude 11.5 N. (a) If the merry-go-round has a mass of 171 kg and a radius of 1.54 m, what is the angular acceleration of the merry-go-round? (Assume the merry-go-round is a uniform disk.) rad/s2
A child sits on a merry-go-round that has a diameter of 6.00 m. The child uses her legs to push the merry-go-round, making it go from rest to an angular speed of 15.0 rpm in a time of 37.0 s. What is the average angular acceleration aavg of the merry-go-round in units of radians per second squared (rad/s2)? avg0.042 rad/s2 What is the angular displacement Δθ of the merry-go-round, in units of radians (rad), during the time the child pushes...
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...
5. A 3.0 m diameter merry-go-round (mass 200 kg) is spinning at 10 rpm. A child of 30.0 kg runs tangent to the merry-go-round at 2.0 m/s, in the opposite direction that it is turning, and jumps onto the outer edge. Calculate the merry-go-round's angular velocity, immediately after the child jumps on.
A merry-go-round is a common piece of playground equipment. A 2.8-m-diameter merry-go-round with a mass of 260 kg is spinning at 22 rpm. John runs tangent to the merry-go-round at 5.0 m/s, in the same direction that it is turning, and jumps onto the outer edge. John's mass is 39 kg. What is the merry-go-round's angular velocity, in rpm, after John jumps on?
A child sits on a merry‑go‑round that has a diameter of 5.00 m. The child uses her legs to push the merry‑go‑round, making it go from rest to an angular speed of 20.0 rpm in a time of 44.0 s. PART 1 What is the average angular acceleration ?avg of the merry‑go‑round in units of radians per second squared (rad/s2)? PART 2 What is the angular displacement Δ? of the merry‑go‑round, in units of radians (rad), during the time the...
Again, looking down from a stationary tree branch, a merry-go-round with a 1 meter radius spins in a counter-clockwise direction with an angular velocity of 1 radian per second. From your viewpoint, a bird of mass 0.2kg flies in a straight line over the axis of the merry-go-round at a uniform speed of 2m/s. Consider three instants: when the bird first crosses the outer edge of the merry-go-round; when the bird crosses the center of the merry-go-round; and, finally, when...
A child sits on a merry‑go‑round that has a diameter of 4.00 m. The child uses her legs to push the merry‑go‑round, making it go from rest to an angular speed of 19.0 rpm in a time of 47.0 s. What is the average angular acceleration ?avg of the merry‑go‑round in units of radians per second squared (rad/s2)? ?avg= What is the angular displacement Δ? of the merry‑go‑round, in units of radians (rad), during the time the child pushes the...

a merry-go-round in the park has a radius of 2.5 m and rotational inertia of 1000 kg*m^2. a child pushes the merry-go-round with a constant force of 50 N applied at a point tangent to the edge. a frictional torque of 12 N*m acts at the axle of the merry-go-round. what is the rotational acceleration of the merry-go-round while the child is pushing? at this rate, what will the rotational velocity of the merry-go-round be after 12 s if it...
