Calculate what the new angular speed of the merry-go-round

Reference no: EM13681444

A playground merry-go-round of radius R = 1.20 meter has a moment of inertia I = 265 kg•m² and is rotating at 12 rpm about a frictionless vertical axle. Facing the axle, a 27 kilogram kid hops onto the merry-go-round and manages to sit down on the edge. Evaluate the new angular speed of the merry-go-round?
