Question
A horizontal 694 N merry-go-round of radius 1.96 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 61.5 N applied tangentially to the merry-go-round. Find the kinetic energy of the merry-go round after 3.89 is. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Assume the merry-go-round is a solid cylinder. Answer in units of J.

Answer:
808.19J
Explanation:
Image attached gives a proper explanation
Answer: 808.24625J
Explanation:
Moment of inertia is the physical quantity, that expresses the tendency of a body to resist angular acceleration. It determines the Torque needed for a desired angular acceleration, about a rotational axis
I = 1/2mr²
I = 1/2(W/g)r²
I = 1/2 * 694/9.8 * 1.96²
I = 1/2 * 272.048
I = 136.024kgm²
Also,
Iα = Fr
136.024α = 61.5*1.96
136.024α = 120.54
α = 120.54/136.024
α = 0.8862 rad/s²
Angular Velocity,
ω = αt
ω = 0.8862*3.89
ω = 3.4473 rad/s
K = 1/2Iω²
K = 1/2*136.024*3.4473²
K = 1/2 * 1616.4925
K = 808.24625J
