A ball of mass 0.293 kilograms is thrown at 20.0 meters per second to a skater standing on ice with arms outstretched. The skater has mass 61.0 kilograms and moment of inertia 1.44 kilogram·meters squared. After catching the ball, at a distance of 0.571 meters from the skater's center, the skater both recoils and rotates. a)What is the skater's final linear speed? b)What is the skater's final angular speed? c)How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?

    A stationary skater with a mass of 80.0 kg and a moment of inertia (about her central vertical axis) of 3.00 kg-m2 catches a baseball with her outstretched arm. The catch is made at a distance of 1.00 m from the central axis. The ball has a mass of 145 g and is traveling at 20.0 m/s before the catch. (a) What linear speed does the system (skater + ball) have after the catch? (b) What is the angular speed...

    Suppose a 0.390 kg ball is thrown at 17.0 m/s to a motionless person standing on ice who catches it with an outstretched arm as shown in the figure below. (a) Calculate the final linear velocity (in m/s) of the person, given his mass is 90.0 kg x m/s 07 (b) What is his angular velocity (in rad/s) if each arm is 3.00 kg? You may treat the ball as a point mass and treat the person's arms as uniform...
