24. In the figure, a man pushes on the outside edge of a merry-go-round Merry-go-round with a constant 60 newton force. In so doing, he manages to increase the spin rate of the merry-go-round from rest to 3 rad/sec in 2 seconds. Assume the radius of the merry-go-round is 2 meters. What is its moment of inertia? maximum α

    A man of mass 75kg stands at the center of a rotating merry-go-round platform of radius 3.0 m and moment of inertia 920 kgm^2. The platform rotates without friction with angular velocity 2.0 rad/s. The man walks radially to the edge of the platform. Calculate: the angular velocity of the system when the man reaches the edge, and the change in the kinetic energy of the system.

    A 3.5 kg cat is near the edge of a 6.5 m diameter merry-go-round in a playground. A man pushes and accelerates the merry-go-round from rest at a uniform rate of 0.75 rad/s2. The cat clings tighter and tighter, but can only hold on with 150 N of force and eventually flies off. At what tangential velocity will the cat fly off? This occurs when the needed centripetal force exceeds what the cat's claws can supply.

    Starting at rest, a child applies a 63N force tangent to the edge of a merry-go-round through 31 2 rotations. At that moment, she stops and admires her spinning merry-go-round. Then she jumps onto the edge of the merry-go-round. The girl’s mass is 25kg, the merry-go-round’s moment of inertia is 70kg· m2, and the merrygo-round’s diameter is 2.0m. What is the final angular speed of the girl and merry-go-round? Child applies tangential force. Fan
