A sonic boom happens if you go faster than the speed of sound and that also makes the big loud sound you hear.

It's caused by shock waves created by an object travelling faster than the speed of sound. The sound waves can't propegate ahead of the plane.

A playground merry-go-round of radius R = 1.20 m has a moment of inertia I = 240 kg · m2 and is rotating at 9.0 rev/min about a

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

ω' = 0.815 rad/s

Explanation:

Given,

R = 1.20 m

Inertia of merry-go- round= 240 kg.m²

Rotating speed = 9 rpm = $9\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

=0.9424 rad/s

mass of the child, m = 26 kg

angular speed of the merry-go-round=?

we know

Angular momentum, L = I ω

Moment of inertia of the child

I' = m r² = 26 x 1.2² = 37.44 kgm²

Conservation of angular momentum

initial angular momentum = Final angular momentum

I ω = (I+I')ω'

240 x 0.9424 = (240+37.44) ω'

226.176= 277.44 ω'

ω' = 0.815 rad/s

new angular speed of the merry-go- round is equal to 0.815 rad/s
