Q.

A 60.0-kg woman stands at the western rim of a horizontal turntable.Moment of inertia of the turntable system is 500 kg.m2 and a radius of 2.0 m. The turntable is initially at rest and is free to rotate about a frictionless, vertical axle through its centre. The woman then starts walking around the rim clockwise (as viewed from above the system) at a constant speed of 1.50 m/s relative to the Earth. The final angular velocity of the woman and the turntable system is

From conservation of angular momentum for the system of the woman and the turntable, we have Lf = Li = 0

So Lf = Iwomanωwoman+Itableωtable = 0

and ωtable= (-IwomanItable)ωwoman

                  = (mwomanr2Itable)(vwomanr)

                 = -mwomanrvwomanItable

ωtable= -60.0 kg (2.00 m)(1.50 m/s)500 kg.m2

            = -0.360 rad/s

or ωtable = 0.360 rad/s (counterclockwise)
