A merry-go-round is a playground ride that consists of a large disk mounted to that it can freely rotate in a horizontal plane. The merry-go-round shown is initially at rest, has a radius R = 1.1 meters, and a mass M = 246 kg. A small boy of mass m = 46 kg runs tangentially to the merry-go-round at a speed of v = 1.9 m/s, and jumps on. 1.The boy then crawls to the center of the merry-go-round. What is the angular speed in radians/second of the merry-go-round when the boy is at the center of the merry go round? 2.Finally, the boy decides that he has had enough fun. He decides to crawl to the outer edge of the merry-go-round and jump off. Somehow, he manages to jump in such a way that he hits the ground with zero velocity with respect to the ground. What is the angular speed in radians/second of the merry-go-round after the boy jumps off?

A diver (m = 60 kg) jumps from a diving board. At takeoff, his angular momentum about the transverse axis is 30 kg⋅m2/s. His radius of gyration about the transverse axis is 0.5 m at this instant. During the dive, he tucks and reduces his radius of gyrations about the transverse axis to 0.2 m. At takeoff, what is the diver’s moment of inertia about his transverse axis?

A disk of mass m, = 70.0 g and radius r, = 4.50 cm slides on a frictionless sheet of ice with velocity v, where v = 14.00 m/s, as shown in a top-down view in figure (a) below. The edge of this disk just grazes the edge of a second disk in a glancing blow. The second disk has a mass m, = 140 g, a radius 2 = 6.00 cm, and is initially at rest. As the disks make contact, they stick together due to highly adhesive glue on the edge of each, and then rotate after the collision as shown in figure (b). m2 (a) What is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kg · m/s) of the two-disk system relative to its center of mass? 0.0686 kg - m/s (b) What is the angular speed (in rad/s) about the center of mass? 82.0 rad/s
Now let's apply our definition of angular momentum to a specific object. A mobile sculpture is suspended from the ceiling of an airport terminal building. It consists of two metal spheres, each with mass 2.0 kgkg, connected by a uniform metal rod with mass 3.0 kgkg and length s=4.0ms=4.0m. The assembly is suspended at its midpoint by a wire and rotates in a horizontal plane, making 3.0 revolutions per minute. Find the angular momentum and kinetic energy of the assembly. Part A - What would the kinetic energy of the sculpture be if the rod was twice as long but it still had the same angular momentum as in the example? Express your answer in joules to two significant figures.
