QUESTION 3 A frog of mass 350 g is sitting on top of a floating log (mass 7.0 kg, radius 15 cm). The frog jumps off of the log, exerting a 12.0 N horizontal force, perpendicular to axis of the log. What is the angular acceleration of the log as the frog is pushing off? You can treat the problem as if the log is a uniform cylinder, rotating about its axis. Ignore any possible horizontal linear acceleration of the log. 28 rad/s? 25 rad/s2 32 rad/s2 30 rad/s2 23 rad/s2

Lara is running just outside the circumference of a carousel, looking for her favorite horse to ride, with a constant angular speed of 1.00 rad/s. Just as she spots the horse, one-fourth of the circumference ahead of her, the carousel begins to move, accelerating from rest at 0.050 rad/s2. a. Taking the time when the carousel begins to move as t = 0, when will Lara catch up to the horse? b. Lara mistakenly passes the horse and keeps running at constant angular speed. If the carousel continues to accelerate at the same rate, when will the horse draw even with Lara again?
