Question
Suppose the platform with the kid in the previous problem is rotating in anticlockwise direction at an angular speed $\omega.$ The kid starts walking along the rim with a speed v relative to the platform also in the anticlockwise direction. Find the new angular speed of the platform.

Answer

From a inertial frame of reference when we see the (man wheel) system, we can find that the wheel moving at a speed of $\omega$ and the man with $\Big(\omega+\frac{\text{V}}{\text{R}}\Big)$ after the man has started walking. $(\omega'=$ angular velocity after walking, $\omega=$ angular velocity of the wheel before walking$).$

Since $\sum\text{l}=0$

Extended torque = 0

Therefore, $(1+\text{MR}^2)\omega=\text{l}\omega'+\text{mR}^2\Big(\omega'+\frac{\text{V}}{\text{R}}\Big)$

$\Rightarrow(1+\text{MR}^2)\omega=\text{l}\omega'+\text{mR}^2\omega'+\text{mVR}$

$\Rightarrow\omega'=\omega-\frac{\text{mVR}}{(1+\text{mR}^2)}.$

Reynold's number NR(a dimensionless quantity) determines the condition of laminar flow of a viscous liquid through a pipe.

In a children's park a heavy rod is pivoted at the centre and is made to rotate about the pivot so that the rod always remains horizontal. Two kids hold the rod near the ends and thus rotate with the rod (fig). Let the mass of each kid be 15 kg, the distance between the points of the rod where the two kids hold it be 3.0 m and suppose that the rod rotates at the rate of 20 revolutions per minute. Find the force of friction exerted by the rod on one of the kids.
