The merry go round can turn, but its center of mass can't move.
2
ANOTHER day, another turn on the managerial merry go round.
3
Suppose you are on a spinning merry go round and you just step off.
4
If I assume the merry go round is like a cylinder, I can say: Ok.
5
If the system is the bullet and the merry go round, the net torque is zero.
6
We used to have a nice merry go round at our park, but it is now gone.
7
This then causes the merry go round to spin with an angular speed ω about its axis.
8
If you just step off, the merry go round will keep going the same speed (angular speed).
9
In this case, the system would be the bullet plus the merry go round and there is an external force.
10
It is ok, the net torque on the merry go round is zero (which really should be a vector).
11
This would be costly and time consuming organisational merry go round to embark upon -but that has never stopped us before.
12
In this week's episode, the MythBusters were seeing if they could make a merry go round spin by hitting it with a bullet.
13
When the bullet hits, the axle exerts a force to prevent the merry go round from moving so that momentum is not conserved.
14
This is Tookie, and this is from Merry Go Round, that little silver and black one.

It had bestsellers with Mara by Tim Ryan and One Spin On The Merry Go Round by Sean Duignan.
