Physics question: don't know how to start. Which formulas?

A child sits 2 m from the center of a merry-go-round that is rotating at a constant

25rpm.

What is the child’s angular velocity in radians/sec?


What is the acceleration of the child?


If the child has a mass of 25 kg, what is the minimum force needed to keep

the child from flying off of the merry-go-round?


What is the child’s linear velocity?


How does the child’s angular velocity change if they move to a position 1 m

from the center?
