A33.0 kg child named lindsey runs as fast as she can and jumps onto the outer edge of a merry-go-round. the merry-go-round is initially at rest and has a mass of 78.0 kg and a radius of 2.20 m . lindsey's linear velocity was 9.00 m/s at the moment she jumped onto the merry-go-round. what is the initial angular momentum of the system?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of child, m₁ = 33 kg

Mass of the merry - go- round, m₂ = 78 kg

Radius of marry go round, r = 2.2 m

Linear speed, v = 9 m/s

Angular momentum of the system is given by :

So, the initial angular momentum of the system is . Hence, this is the required solution.
