by angular momentum conservation we will have

angular momentum of child + angular momentum of merry go round = 0

angular momentum of child = mvR

m = mass of child

R = radius of child

v = speed = 2 m/s

now let's say moment of inertia of merry go round is I

so we will have

m*2*R + Iw = 0

w = -\frac{2mR}{I}

so merry go round will turn in opposite direction with above speed

a ball moves at a constant speed of 1/2 meter per second. How much time does it take the ball to move 1 meter?
lesya [120]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

if a ball travels 1/2 meter per second, and there's 2 halfs in a whole, 1/2 meter per second x 2 halfs in a whole meter is 2 seconds to travel a meter

A portion of the atmosphere that becomes warmer than surrounding air will ____.
earnstyle [38]
<span>A portion of the atmosphere that becomes warmer than surrounding air will expand and rise. The warmer atmosphere the more space between the molecules. Therefore, warmer atmosphere </span><span>expands to allow more space for the molecules. Cool air on the other hand, contracts because the molecules in cool air need less space.</span>

after a large snowstorm you shovel 2000 kilograms of snow off your side walk in 1 hour. you lift the shovel to an average height
solmaris [256]

Lifting a mass to a height, you give it gravitational potential energy of

       (mass) x (gravity) x (height)  joules.

To give it that much energy, that's how much work you do on it.

If 2,000 kg gets lifted to 1.25 meters off the ground, its potential energy is

         (2,000) x (9.8) x (1.25) = 24,500 joules.

If you do it in 1 hour (3,600 seconds), then the average power is

           (24,500 joules) / (3,600 seconds) = 6.8 watts.

None of these figures depends on whether the load gets lifted all at once,
or one shovel at a time, or one flake at a time.

But this certainly is NOT all the work you do.  When you get a shovelful
of snow 1.25 meters off the ground, you don't drop it and walk away, and
it doesn't just float there. You typically toss it, away from where it was laying
and over onto a pile in a place where you don't care if there's a pile of snow
there. In order to toss it, you give it some kinetic energy, so that it'll continue
to sail over to the pile when it leaves the shovel.  All of that kinetic energy
must also come from work that you do ... nobody else is going to take it
from you and toss it onto the pile.
