A 137 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.97 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 66.7 kg person stands on the platform at a distance of 1.07 m from the center, and a 28.5 kg dog sits on the platform near the person 1.45 m from the center. Find the moment of inertia of this system, consisting of the platform and its population, with respect to the axis.

if the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force on the object.

explanation:

this is best explained by having an understanding of newton's second law, which states that f=ma. you see, when the forces are unbalanced, net force (sum of all forces) is not zero. therefore making it necessary for the object to have an acceleration in the direction of the net force.
