Answer:
B) I1 = 1680 kg.m^2 I2 = 1120 kg.m^2
C) V = 0.84m/s T = 29.92s
D) ω2 = 0.315 rad/s
Explanation:
The moment of inertia when they are standing on the edge:
where M is the mass of the merry-go-round.
I1 = 1680 kg.m^2
The moment of inertia when they are standing half way to the center:
I2 = 1120 kg.m^2
The tangencial velocity is given by:
V = ω1*R = 0.84m/s
Period of rotation:
T = 2π / ω1 = 29.92s
Assuming that there is no friction and their parents are not pushing anymore, we can use conservation of the angular momentum to calculate the new angular velocity:
I1*ω1 = I2*ω2 Solving for ω2:
ω2 = I1*ω1 / I2 = 0.315 rad/s
To solve this problem we will apply the concept related to the kinetic energy theorem. Said theorem states that the work done by the net force (sum of all forces) applied to a particle is equal to the change experienced by the kinetic energy of that particle. This is:
Here,
m = mass
v = Velocity
Our values are given as,
Replacing,
Therefore the mechanical energy lost due to friction acting on the runner is 907J
