Homework Statement
A merry - go - round rotates clockwise 15 times in 45 seconds. By rubbing against its edge, a child stop it from turning in 15 seconds.
a) find its initial angular velocity (ω)
b) find its angular acceleration ([itex]\alpha[/itex])
The Attempt at a Solution
15 times in 45 seconds means:
in 1 second it makes 1/3 of a revolution
thus in 3 seconds it make on complete revolution
im not sure if I am going in the right direction but Angular Velocity is in radians per second.
Am i on the right track? Do i just take the reciprocal of my answer? Please help
