A 4.0-m-diameter playground merry-go-round, with a moment of inertia of 300 kg⋅m2 is freely rotating with an angular velocity of 2.5 rad/s .Ryan, whose mass is 60 kg , runs on the ground around the outer edge of the merry-go-round in the opposite direction to its rotation. Still moving, he jumps directly onto the rim of the merry-go-round, bringing it (and himself) to a halt.

How fast was Ryan running when he jumped on?

a.6.3 m/s

b.10 m/s

c.3.1 m/s

d.12 m/s

e.13 m/s

double the distance = divide strength by 4

dang that balls went far

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.

myth. it was once thought that animals, including cats and dogs, could only see in black and white. however, scientists have proven this to be a myth. in all animals, including humans, the perception of colour is determined by the presence of cells in the eye called cone photoreceptors.
