Answer:
In collisions between two isolated objects Newton's third law implies that momentum is always conserved. In collisions between two isolated objects momentum is always conserved. Kinetic energy is only conserved in elastic collisions.
Explanation:
Answer:
72.75 kg m^2
Explanation:
initial angular velocity, ω = 35 rpm
final angular velocity, ω' = 19 rpm
mass of child, m = 15.5 kg
distance from the centre, d = 1.55 m
Let the moment of inertia of the merry go round is I.
Use the concept of conservation of angular momentum
I ω = I' ω'
where I' be the moment of inertia of merry go round and child
I x 35 = ( I + md^2) ω'
I x 35 = ( I + 25.5 x 1.55 x 1.55) x 19
35 I = 19 I + 1164
16 I = 1164
I = 72.75 kg m^2
Thus, the moment of inertia of the merry go round is 72.75 kg m^2.
As per impulse momentum theorem we know that

now here we will have

t = 1.30 ms
m = 0.144 kg

now we need to find final speed using above formula


so final speed is given as above
Product of my research: 1 HP = 746 watts .
12 HP = (12 x 746 W) = 8,952 W
8,952 W = 8.952 kW
