B. How many revolutions will it make in 10.0 seconds?

C. How long does it take for a person to make 1 complete revolution?

D. What is the velocity in m/s of person standing on its edge?

A.) 4 revolution

B.) 0.2 revolution

C.) 4 seconds

D.) 2.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a merry-go-round a.k.a "the spinny thing" is rotating at 15 RPM, and has a radius of 1.75 m

Solution

1 revolution = 2πr

Where r = 1.75m

A. How many revolutions will it make in 3 minutes?

(2π × 1.75) / 3

10.9955 / 3

3.665 RPM

Number of revolution = 15 / 3.665

Number of revolution = 4 revolution

B. How many revolutions will it make in 10.0 seconds?

First convert 10 seconds to minutes

10/60 = 0.167 minute

(2π × 1.75) / 0.167

10.9955 / 0.167

65.973

Number of revolution = 15 / 65.973

Number of revolution = 0.2 revolution

C. How long does it take for a person to make 1 complete revolution?

15 = 1 / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 1/15

t = 0.0667 minute

t = 4 seconds

D. What is the velocity in m/s of person standing on its edge?

Velocity in m/ s will be:

Velocity = (15 × 2pi × r) / 60

Velocity = 164.9334 / 60

Velocity = 2.75 m/s
