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?
Question 8 (6 points) A 60.0-kg skater is spinning at 0.800 rev/s with her arms and legs extended outward. In this position her moment of inertia with respect to the vertical axis about which she is spinning is 6.00 kg•m?. She pulls her arms and legs in close to her body changing her moment of inertia to 2.00 kg•m². What is her final angular velocity in rad/s? a) 8.71 rad/s b) 15.1 rad/s c) 2.40 rad/s d) 0.800 rad/s e)...
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.
1. An ice skater is spinning about a vertical axis with her arms fully extended. If her arms are pulled in closer to her body, in which of the following ways are the angular momentum and kinetic energy of the skater affected?

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 is spinning at a particular rotational velocity when she decides to bring her arms inward, thus reducing her moment of inertia. If she reduces her moment of inertia by 20.0%, her rotational velocity will increase by what percent?
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
A skater extends her arms horizontally, holding a 5-kg mass in each hand. She is rotating about a vertical axis with an angular velocity of one revolution per second. If she drops her hands to her sides, what will the final angular velocity (in rev/s) be if her moment of inertia remains approximately constant at 5 kgxm2, and the distance of the masses from the axis changes from 1 m to 0.1 m?

A dancer is spinning at 72 rpm about an axis through her center with her arms outstretched, as shown in the following figure. From biomedical measurements, the typical distribution of mass in a human body is as follows: Head: 7.0% Arms: 13%(for both) Trunk and legs: 80.0% Suppose the mass of the dancer is 56.0 kg , the diameter of her head is 16 cm, the width of her body is 24 cm, and the length of her arms is...
