Mass of the merry-go-round = M = 450 kg
Radius of the merry-go-round = R = 1.5 m
Moment of inertia of the merry-go-round = I
I = MR2/2
I = (450)(1.5)2/2
I = 506.25 kg.m2
Mass of the child = m = 43 kg
The platform is rotating at a rate of 1 revolution every 2.2 sec.
Initial angular speed of the merry-go-round = 1 = 1/2.2 rev/s = 0.4545 rev/s = 0.4545 x (2) rad/s = 2.856 rad/s
Final angular speed of the merry-go-round = 2
Initially the child is at the edge of the platform therefore the child is at a distance equal to the radius of the platform from the center of the platform.
By conservation of angular momentum,
(I + mR2)1 = I2
(506.25 + (43)(1.5)2)(2.856) = (506.25)2
2 = 3.4 rad/s
A) Rotational speed of the platform after the child arrives at the center of the platform = 3.4 rad/s
