A dog sits 1.5 m from the center of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round is set in motion, and the dog’s tangential speed is 1.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the dog’s centripetal acceleration?

The coefficient of friction is a number that represents the resistance to sliding between two in contact with one another.

Aplayground merry-go-round has a radius of 4.6 m and a moment of inertia of 200 kg-m2 and turns with negligible friction about a vertical axle through its center. a child applies a 26.0 n force tangentially to the edge of the merry-go-round for 15.0 seconds. if the merry-go-round is initially at rest, how much work did the child do on the merry-go-round?

If the spring constant k of a pogo stick is 3500 n m and the weight of the person on the pogo stick is 700 n, how much is the spring in the botom of the pogo stick compressed?
