A 33% Part (b) He reduces his rate of rotation by extending his arms and increasing his moment of inertia. Find the value of his moment of inertia (in kilogram meters squared if his rate of rotation decreases to 0.75 rev/s. A 33% Part (c) Suppose instead he keeps his arms in and allows friction of the ice to slow him to 2.5 rev/s. What is the magnitude of the average torque that was exerted, in N m, if this takes 13 s? tent 2016 Expert TA, LLC

Explanation / Answer

(a)angular momentum=Iw

if w=6.4rev/s=40.21 radian/sec

angular momentum=0.24*40.21=9.65 kg m^2/s

(b) if w is decreased to 0.75 rev /sec

by conservation of angular momentum

I1*w1=I2*w2

I2=I1*w1/w2=2.048 kgm^2

(c) average torque=I*angular acceleration

angular acceleration=2*pi(2.5-6.4)/13=1.885 radian/sec^2

average torque=0.24*1.885=0.45 Nm
