According to Newton’s Second Law of Motion, an object will accelerate if you apply what kind of force?

If you got this question from a book or homework sheet, then
you should take it back and comp[lain. It's a defective question.

It's fishing for the answer "unbalanced force", but that's a misleading
and misuse of the term. There's no such thing as a "balanced force"
or an "unbalanced force".

A GROUP of two or more forces can be balanced ... if the forces
all cancel each other out and add up to zero ... or unbalanced ...
if they don't. But it's never correct to apply that description to
a single force.

According to Newton's second law of motion, an object will
accelerate if the forces on it are unbalanced.

Answer:

(a)11.24 m/s

(b)7.44 m/s

(d) $539.55\mu$

(e) 0

Explanation:

The period for 1 circle $2\pi$ of the merry go around is 9.5s. It means the angular speed is:

$\omega = \theta / t = 2\pi / 9.5 \approx 0.661 rad/s$

(a)The speed is

$v = \omega * R = 0.661 * 17 = 11.24 m/s$

(b) Centripetal acceleration:

$a = \frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{11.24^2}{17} = 7.44 m/s^2$

$F = ma = 55 * 7.44 = 409 N$

(d) let the coefficient of friction by $\mu$ . The frictional force shall be this coefficient multiplied by normal force reverting gravity of the man

$F_f = mg\mu = 55*9.81\mu = 539.55\mu$

How does the matter and (solar) energy move through the sphere?

Tema [17]

When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.
