A figure skater can increase her spin rotation rate from an initial rate of 1.5 rev every 1.8 seconds to a final rate of 2.9 rev/s. If her initial moment of inertia was 4.35 kg/m2 , what is her final moment of inertia?
Let us consider the followings -
I1 = initial moment of inertia = 4.35 kg*m^2
I2 = final moment of inertia = ?
w1= initial rotation rate = 1.5/1.8 = 0.82 rev/s
w2 = final rotation rate = 2.9 rev/s
Apply conservation of angular momentum -
I1 w1 = I2 w2
Put the values-
4.35 x 0.82 = I2 x 2.9
=> I2 = (4.35 x 0.82) / 2.9 = 1.23 kg*m^2
Hence, the final moment of inertia = 1.23 kg*m^2 (Answer)

A figure-skater finishes her routine with a dramatic spin. Initially, she spins at a rate of 1.3 rev/sec. During this time, the figure skater has her arms stretched out. In each hand, she holds a mass of 2.3 kg at a distance of 0.65m from the center of her body. She then pulls her arms in so that the masses are tucked into the middle of her chest. The moment of inertia of her head-torso-legs remains fixed at 24 kg-m2....
