**33. ssm A child, hunting for his favorite wooden horse, is running on the ground around the edge of a stationary merry-go-round. The angular speed of the child has a constant value of 0.250 rad/s. At the instant the child spots the horse, one-quarter of a turn away, the merry-go-round begins to move (in the direction the child is running) with a constant an- gular acceleration of 0.0100 rad/s². What is the shortest time it takes for the child to catch up with the horse?

While placing a compact disc into a CD player, you notice a small chip on its edge. You attempt to play the CD anyway by placing the CD into the player's deck with the chip at 0o = 12.6° as measured from the +x-axis. The CD begins to rotate with angular acceleration a = 2.31 rad/s². If the CD has been spinning for t = 3.51 s and the disc has a radius of r = 6.00 cm, what are the x-y coordinates of the chip after this time, assuming the center of the disc is located at (0.00,0.00). X = y = cm cm
A car is on a race track of radius 1200 feet. The car begins moving at 118 ft/s, but accelerates at 12.2 ft/s2 up to its top speed, traveling 2510 feet to do so. What is the angular displacement, angular acceleration and initial angular speed of the car about the track?
An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.200 rev/s. The magnitude of the angular acceleration is 0.881 rev/s².

A race car, starting from rest, travels around a circular turn of radius 28.5 m. At a certain instant, the car is still accelerating, and its angular speed-is 0.794 rad/s. At this time, the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) makes an angle of 35.0° with respect to the radius. What is the magnitude of the total acceleration? Number Units

At a time of 13D0 seconds the tires of a moving motorcycle are rotating with an unknown initial angular velocity, at that instant each tire starts accelerating with an angular acceleration of 3.00 rev/s2 for 5.00 seconds. Each tire turns through 50.0 revolutions in those 5.00 seconds. Assume the motorcycles tires have a radius of 36.0 cm and that the tires rotate without slipping relative to the road surface. How fast is the motorcycle traveling at t=5.0s?

Human centrifuges are used to train military pilots and astronauts in preparation for high-g maneuvers. A trained, fit person wearing a g-suit can withstand accelerations up to about 9g (88.2 m/s²) without losing consciousness. HINT (a) If a human centrifuge has a radius of 4.54 m, what angular speed (in rad/s) results in a centripetal acceleration of 9g? rad/s (b) What linear speed (in m/s) would a person in the centrifuge have at this acceleration? m/s
