Experiment 1 Sit in a chair that spins and hold something of moderate to heavy weight in each hand, such as bottles of soda or canned goods (the heavier you can manage, the better for this experiment.) Holding the weights close to your chest, start spinning in the chair. After you reach a reasonable speed, extend your arms while holding the weights. Explain what happens and why. Using equations from the class, demonstrate this mathematically.
