Adisk-shaped merry-go-round of radius 2.63 m and mass 155 kg rotates freely with an angular speed of 0.718 rev/s. a 59.4 kg person running tangential to the rim of the merry-go-round at 3.34 m/s jumps onto its rim and holds on. before jumping on the merry-go-round, the person was moving in the same direction as the merry-go-round's rim. (a) does the kinetic energy of the system increase, decrease, or stay the same when the person jumps on the merry-go-round? stay the same increase decrease (b) calculate the initial and final kinetic energies for this system. ki = kjkf = kj

•• al and bert are jogging side-by-side on a trail in the woods at a speed of 0.75 m/s. suddenly al sees the end of the trail 35 m ahead and decides to speed up to reach it. he accelerates at a constant rate of 0.50 m/s2, while bert continues on at a constant speed. (a) how long does it take al to reach the end of the trail? (b) once he reaches the end of the trail, he immediately turns around and heads back along the trail with a constant speed of 0.85 m/s. how long does it take him to meet up with bert? (c) how far are they from the end of the trail when they meet?

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
