Part A)
First we need to find the angular velocity is rad/s
Given 18 rev/min with 2π radians /rev and 60 sec/min, the angular velcoity, ω, = 1.88 rad/s
Then, using ωf = ωo + αt, we can find the angular acceleration
1.88 = 0 + α(13)
α = .145 rad/s2
The formula for torque is τ = Iα
The moment on inertia, I, is that of the disc, plus the kids,
For a disc the moment of inertia is .5mr2
For each child it will just be their individual mr2
So I = (.5)(800)(2.7)2 + (25)(2.7)2 + (25)(2.7)2 = 3280.5 kgm2
Then..
τ = (3280.5)(.145) = 475.7 Nm
Part B)
The force is fouce from another way to write the torque equation
τ = FL
475.7 - (F)(2.7)
F = 176.2 N

Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that has a mass of 105 kg and a radius of 1.70 m. The merry-go-round is spinning at 18.0 rpm. The children have masses of 22.0, 28.0, and 33.0 kg. If the 28.0 kg child moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new angular velocity in revolutions per minute? Ignore friction, and assume that the merry-go-round can be treated as a solid disk and the children as...
Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that is 105 kg, has a 1.40-m radius, and is spinning at 24.0 rpm. The children nave masses of 22.0, 28.0, and 33.0 kg. If the child who has a mass of 28.0 kg moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new angular velocity in rpm? Ignore friction, and assume that the merry-go-round can be treated as a solid disk and the children as points.
