Bob and Lily are riding on a merry-go-round. Bob rides on a horse near the outer edge of the circular platform, and Lily rides on a horse near the center of the circular platform. When the merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed, Bob's angular speed is:. a. the same as Lily's.
b. larger than Lily's.
c. exactly half as much as Lily's.
d. exactly twice as much as Lily's.
e. smaller than Lily's.

the same as Lily's

Explanation:

Angular velocity has to do with the speed at which an object will be able to rotate. We are informed that Bob and Lily are riding on a merry-go-round.

Since we are further told that Bob rides on a horse near the outer edge of the circular platform, and Lily rides on a horse near the center of the circular platform and that he merry-go-round is rotating at a constant angular speed.

Based on the above analysis, Bob's angular speed will be thesame as that of Lily.
