A playground merry-go-round has a moment of inertia of 600 kg m2. When the merry-go-round is at rest, a 20 kg boy runs at 5.9 m/s along a line tangential to the rim and jumps on, landing on the rim a distance of 3.0 m from the rotation axis of the merry-go-round. The angular velocity of the merry-go-round is then: A.1.2 rad/s B.0.38 rad/s C.0.45 rad/s D.0.56 rad/s E.0.72 rad/s
