A 55-kg dynamics instructor is demonstrating the principles of angular momentum to her class. She stands on a freely rotating platform with her body aligned with the vertical platform axis. With the platform not rotating, she holds a modified bicycle wheel so that its axis is vertical. She then turns the wheel axis to a horizontal orientation without changing the 600-mm distance from the centerline of her body to the wheel center, and her students observe a platform rotation rate of 30 rev /min. If the rim-weighted wheel has a mass of 10 kg and a centroidal radius of gyration k = 300 mm, and is spinning at a fairly constant rate of 250 rev /min, estimate the mass moment of inertia I of the instructor (in the posture shown) about the vertical platform axis.
