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?
Given is:-
Initial moment of inertial
Final moment of inertia
Now,
The rotational kinetic energy is given by
thus initial rotational kinetic energy is
and the final rotational kinetic energy is
or
Hence,
The rotational kinetic energy is change by a factor of
thus option - 1 is correct answer.

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 spinning skater draws in her outstretched arms thereby reducing her moment of inertia by a factor of 3. Determine the ratio of her final kinetic energy to her initial kinetic energy.
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?
