CP A large turntable with radius 6.00 m rotates about a fixed vertical axis, making one revolution in 8.00 s. The moment of inertia of the turntable about this axis is 1200 kg · m2. You stand, barefooted, at the rim of the turntable and very slowly walk toward the center, along a radial line painted on the surface of the turntable. Your mass is 70.0 kg. Since the radius of the turntable is large, it is a good approximation to treat yourself as a point mass. Assume that you can maintain your balance by adjusting the positions of your feet. You find that you can reach a point 3.00 m from the center of the turntable before your feet begin to slip. What is the coefficient of static friction between the bottoms of your feet and the surface of the turntable?

A large turntable with radius 6.00 m rotates about a fixed vertical axis, making one revolution in
8.00 s. The moment of inertia of the turntable about this axis is 1200 kg · m2. You stand, barefooted,
at the rim of the turntable and very slowly walk toward the center, along a radial line painted on the
surface of the turntable. Your mass is 71.0 kg. Since the radius of the turntable is large, it is a good
approximation to treat yourself as a point mass. Assume that you can maintain your balance by
adjusting the positions of your feet. You find that you can reach a point 3.00 m from the center of the
turntable before your feet begin to slip.

A figure skater has a moment of inertia of 0.45 kg-m2. He is spinning at 315.6 rpm. He extends his arms until he slows down to 68.3 rpm. What is his new moment of inerta (in kg-m2)?
A large turntable rotates about a fixed vertical axis, making one revolution in 6.00 ss. The moment of inertia of the turntable about this axis is 1300 kg⋅m2kg⋅m2. A child of mass 35.0 kgkg, initially standing at the center of the turntable, runs out along a radius.
What is the angular speed of the turntable when the child is 2.50 mm from the center, assuming that you can treat the child as a particle?
