The diagram above shows a top view of a child of mass \(M\) on a circular platform of mass \(2M\) that is rotating counterclockwise. Assume the platform rotates without friction. Which of the following describes an action by the child that will increase the angular speed of the platform-child system and gives the correct reason why?

The driver of a car traveling at \( 30.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) applies the brakes and undergoes a constant negative acceleration of \( 2.00 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). How many revolutions does each tire make before the car comes to a stop, assuming that the car does not skid and that the tires have radii of \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \)?

A block of mass 3.0 kg is hung from a spring, causing it to stretch 12 cm at equilibrium. The 3.0 kg block is then taken off and the spring returns to its original height. Now a 4.0 kg block is placed on the spring and released from rest. How far will the 4.0 kg block fall before its direction is reversed?
