Q3 At a given instant, the merry-go-round is rotating with an angular velocity w = 20...
Suppose a child gets off a rotating merry-go-round. Does the angular velocity of the merry-go-round increase, decrease, or remain the same if: (a) He jumps off radially? (b) He jumps backward to land motionless? (c) He jumps straight up and hangs onto an overhead tree branch? (d) He jumps off forward, tangential to the edge? Explain your answers. (Refer to the figure below)
A merry-go-round with moment of inertia 400 kg-m^2 and radius 2.0m is rotating with angular speed 0.50 rad/s in the clockwise direction about a fixed axis. A child of mass 40 kg runs tangentially to the merry-go-round with speed 3.0m/s and grabs onto the outside edge of the merry-go-round. a. What is the final angular velocity of the system (merry-go-round plus child)/ What is the final tangential speed of the child? b. What is the change in kinetic energy? c....
What happens to the angular speed of a rotating merry go round if a child on the merry go round leaves the horse on the outer edge and moves to the cow near the center of the merry go round? a) it increases b) it decreases c) it stays the same d) impossile to determine
A child sits on a merry-go-round at a distance of 3.0 m from its axis of rotation. The coefficient of static friction between the child and the surface of the merry-go-round is 0.6. Find the largest angular velocity (in rpm) the merry-go-round can have before the child starts to slide outward. Your solution must show a free-body diagram of the child.
4. Cons ider the case of a rotating merry-go-round platform of mass of 310 kg and radius 3.40 m. A person of mass 85 kg is standing on the outer edge of the merry-go-round platform. The merry-go- round platform with the person standing on its edge, rotates without friction about its central vertical axle with an angular speed of 2.30 rad/s. The person then jumps off the merry-go-round along a line radially outward from the central axle of the platform....

A 3.9-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.80 rad/s . Its total moment of inertia is 1350 kg⋅m2 . Four people standing on the ground, each of mass 68 kg , suddenly step onto the edge of the merry-go-round. What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round now?
A 4.5-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.84 rad/s . Its total moment of inertia is 1700 kg⋅m2 . Four people standing on the ground, each of mass 68 kg , suddenly step onto the edge of the merry-go-round. What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round now? What if the people were on it initially and then jumped off in a radial direction (relative to the merry-go-round)?
A 4.4-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.90 rad. Its total moment of inertia is 1360 kg⋅m2 . Four people standing on the ground, each of mass 62 kg , suddenly step onto the edge of the merry-go-round. A) What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round now? B) What if the people were on it initially and then jumped off in a radial direction (relative to the merry-go-round)?
A merry-go-round with a mass of 250 kg and a radius of 3.0 m is rotating about its axis by 30.0 rpm when a student by mass of 80 kg is at 0.5 m from the center. The student moves towards the edge. Find angular velocity of total system when the student is on the edge of merry-go-round.
