In Figure, a 30 kg child stands on the edge of a stationary merry-go-round of mass 100

Question:

In Figure, a 30 kg child stands on the edge of a stationary merry-go-round of mass 100 kg and radius 2.0 m. The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round about its rotation axis is 150 kg ? m. The child catches a ball of mass 1.0 kg thrown by a friend. Just before the ball is caught, it has a horizontal velocity v of magnitude 12 m/s, at angle ? = 37? with a line tangent to the outer edge of the merry-go-round, as shown. What is the angular speed of the merry-go-round just after the ball is caught?image
