The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the principles of rotational motion, specifically the conservation of angular momentum. Here's a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Calculate the initial angular velocity The table completes one rotation in 10 seconds. The angular velocity (ω_initial) can be calculated using the formula: \[ \omega_{\text{initial}} = \frac{2\pi \text{ radians}}{T} \] where \( T \) is the time period (10 seconds). \[ \omega_{\text{initial}} = \frac{2\pi}{10} = \frac{\pi}{5} \text{ rad/sec} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the initial angular momentum The initial angular momentum (L_initial) can be calculated using the formula: \[ L_{\text{initial}} = I_{\text{initial}} \cdot \omega_{\text{initial}} \] Given that the moment of inertia (I_initial) of the table is 100 kg·m²: \[ L_{\text{initial}} = 100 \cdot \frac{\pi}{5} = 20\pi \text{ kg·m²/sec} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the change in moment of inertia when the person moves When the person of mass 50 kg moves 2 meters from the center, we need to calculate the additional moment of inertia contributed by the person. The moment of inertia (I_person) of the person can be calculated using: \[ I_{\text{person}} = m \cdot r^2 \] where \( m \) is the mass of the person (50 kg) and \( r \) is the distance from the center (2 m): \[ I_{\text{person}} = 50 \cdot (2^2) = 50 \cdot 4 = 200 \text{ kg·m²} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the final moment of inertia Now, we can find the final moment of inertia (I_final) of the system: \[ I_{\text{final}} = I_{\text{initial}} + I_{\text{person}} = 100 + 200 = 300 \text{ kg·m²} \] ### Step 5: Apply conservation of angular momentum Since there is no external torque acting on the system, we can apply the conservation of angular momentum: \[ L_{\text{initial}} = L_{\text{final}} \] Thus, \[ I_{\text{initial}} \cdot \omega_{\text{initial}} = I_{\text{final}} \cdot \omega_{\text{final}} \] Substituting the known values: \[ 100 \cdot \frac{\pi}{5} = 300 \cdot \omega_{\text{final}} \] ### Step 6: Solve for the final angular velocity Now we can solve for \( \omega_{\text{final}} \): \[ 20\pi = 300 \cdot \omega_{\text{final}} \] \[ \omega_{\text{final}} = \frac{20\pi}{300} = \frac{\pi}{15} \text{ rad/sec} \] ### Final Answer The angular velocity of the rotating table after the person moves 2 meters from the center is: \[ \omega_{\text{final}} = \frac{\pi}{15} \text{ rad/sec} \] ---
