A figure skater is spinning slowly with arms outstretched. She brings her arms in close to her body and her moment of inertia decreases by 12. By what factor does her rotational Kinetic energy change?
A skater has a moment of inertia of 4kg.m2 when both her arms are outstretched rotating at 60 rpm. When she draws her arms in her moment of inertia drops to 0.8kg.m2 . What is her angular momentum and new speed of rotation in rpm?
An ice skater spinning with outstretched arms has an angular speed of 5.0rad/s . She tucks in her arms, decreasing her moment of inertia by 29% . What is the resulting angular speed? rad/s By what factor does the skater's kinetic energy change? (Neglect any frictional effects.) where does the extra kinetic energy come from?
An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kg-m2 when her arms are outstretched. At this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolutions per second (rps). If she pulls in her arms and decreases her moment of inertia to 2.0 kg-m2, how fast will she be spinning? A) 7.5 rps B) 8.4 rps C) 2.0 rps D) 10 rps E) 3.3 rps
6. A figure skater is spinning slowly with arms outstretched. She brings her arms in close to her body and her angular speed increases dramatically. The increase in angular speed is a demonstration of: (A) Conservation of angular momentum. (B) Conservation of momentum. (C) Conservation of total energy. (D) Conservation of kinetic energy. (E) Conservation of mechanical energy.
A skater is spinning about a fixed symmetrical vertical axis. When she lifts her arms above her head, her moment of inertia about this axis of rotation drops from 12.0 kg m2 to 8.00 kg m2. What is the ratio of her final rotational energy and her initial rotational energy?
A figure skater is spinning at a rate of 0.75 revolutions per second with her arms close to her chest. She then extends her arms outwards and her new rotational frequency is 0.50 revolutions per second. What is ratio of her new moment of inertia to her original moment of inertia?
A figure skater is spinning at a rate of 0.80 revolutions per second with her arms close to her chest. She then extends her arms outwards and her new rotational frequency is 0.40 revolutions per second. What is ratio of her new moment of inertia to her original moment of inertia?
An ice skater spins, with her arms and one leg outstretched, and achieves an angular velocity of 2 rad/s. when she pulls in her arms, her moment of inertia decreases to 65% its original value. what is her new angular velocity?
An ice skater with moment of inertia 70.0 kg•m2 is spinning at 41.0 rpm. If the skater pulls in her arms, her moment of inertia decreases to 50.0 kg•m2. What is the skater’s resulting angular velocity?
