merry-go-round as seen from above
is shown in Fig. 11-47a with a conve-
nient coordinate system. A bit after
the merry-go-round has started and
is going around uniformly, we start

If it is, write "Yes" and give a reason why you think so. If it isn't,
write “No" and specify the type of force and the object responsible

Calculate the angular acceleration produced if 95.0 of this torque is applied to the drive shaft, axle, and rear wheels of a car, given the following information. The car is suspended so that the wheels can turn freely. Each wheel acts like a 15.0-kg disk that has a 0.180-m radius. The walls of each tire act like a 2.00-kg annular ring that has inside radius of 0.180 m and outside radius of 0.320 m. The tread of each tire acts like a 10.0-kg hoop of radius 0.330 m. The 14.0-kg axle acts like a rod that has a 2.00-cm radius.
