Question 5

A child of mass $$25\ \mathrm{kg}$$ sits at the center of a merry-go-round of radius $$2\ \mathrm{m}$$ and moment of inertia $$500\ \mathrm{kg\cdot m^2$}$$, rotating at $$\$$omega_1$$ = \frac{2\pi}{5}\ \mathrm{rad/s}. $$The child then moves to the rim.

Accepted Answer

$$\omega_f = \frac{I_1$}{I_1$ + I_2$} \$$omega_1$$

Question 7

Accepted Answer

It rotates counterclockwise to conserve angular momentum

Question 8

Which of the following is NOT a condition for static equilibrium of a rigid body?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

Zero

Question 11

Accepted Answer

The line of action of her weight must pass through her supporting foot

Question 13

Which of the following best describes the right-hand rule for determining the direction of angular momentum?
