Do all questions and explain them in your own words:
Show all steps:
1) Angular and linear velocities.
A carousel is initially at rest. At t = 0 it is given a constant angular
acceleration Alpha = 0.060 rad/s2, which increases its angular
velocity for 8.0 s. At t = 8.0 sec determine:

(a) the angular velocity of the carousel, and

(b) the linear velocity of a child located 2.5 m from the center,
point P.
2) Angular and linear accelerations.
For the child on the rotating carousel of Example 1, determine
that child’s

(a) tangential (linear) acceleration,

(b) centripetal acceleration,

(c) total acceleration.

Two weights on a bar:

3) Different axis, different I. Two small “weights,” of mass 5.0 kg and
7.0 kg, are mounted 4.0 m apart on a light rod (whose mass can
be ignored). Calculate the moment of inertia of the system
(a) when rotated about an axis halfway between the weights, and
(b) when rotated about an axis 0.50 m to the left of the 5.0-kg
mass.
