A child of mass 53.7 kg sits on the edge of a merry-go-round with radius 2.2 m and mo- ment of inertia 205.327 kgm2. The merry- go-round rotates with an angular velocity of 1.6 rad/s. The child then walks towards the center of the merry-go-round and stops at a distance 0.836 m from the center. Now what is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round? Answer in units of rad/s.

An equinox occurs when a. neither end of earth's axis is tilted toward or away from the sun. b. the north end of earth's axis is tilted away from the sun. c. the north end of earth's axis is tilted toward the sun. d. earth's axis is parallel to the sun's rays. select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

Which accounts for an increase in the temperature of a gas that is kept a constant volume

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?
