6. A merry-go-round has a moment of inertia I = 740.0 kg.m² and radius of 2.30m. A child with m = 34.0kg runs at the merry-go-round (MGR) at v = 2.60m/s. His straight line path would miss the center of the MGR by a distance of 1.30m. What is his angular momentum relative to the MGR center before reaching it? If the MGR is initially at rest, what is its angular speed after the child jumps on assuming the child stays at the outer rim?
