The radius of a park merry-go-round is 17 m to start it


The radius of a park merry-go-round is 1.7 m. To start it rotating, you wrap a ropearound it and pull with a force of 260 N for 17 s. During this time, the merry-go-round makesone complete rotation.

(a) Find the angular acceleration of the merry-go-round(rad/s^2).

(b) What is the magnitude of the torque exerted by the rope onthe merry-go-round? (N*m)

(c) What is the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round?(kg*m^2)
