Answer:
Explanation:
Given
radius of purse from center [tex]r_p=2\ m[/tex]
radius of wallet from center [tex]r_w=2.3\ m[/tex]
Merry - go - round is undergoing uniform circular motion therefore angular velocity is constant
acceleration of purse is equal to centripetal acceleration [tex]a_p=\omega ^2\times r[/tex]
where [tex]\omega =angular\ velocity[/tex]
[tex]2=\omega ^2\times 2[/tex]
[tex]\omega =1\ rad/s[/tex]
acceleration of wallet is
[tex]a_w=\omega ^2\times r_w[/tex]
[tex]a_w=1\times 2.3=2.3\ m/s^2[/tex]
