QUESTION:
A woman with mass 50 kg is standing on the rim of a large disk that is rotating at 0.80 rev/s about an axis through its center. The disk has mass 110 kg and radius 4.0 m. Calculate the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system. (Assume that you can treat the woman as a point.)
ANSWER:Solution 36E Step 1: Given data: Mass of woman M = 5w kg Mass of the disk M = 110 kg d Angular velocity of disk w = 0.80 rev/s Radius of disk R = 4.0 m
