A skater has rotational inertia 4.2 kg.m2 with his fists held to his chest and 5.7 kg.m2 with his arms outstretched. The skater

is spinning at 3.0 rev/s while holding a 2.5-kg weight in each outstretched hand; the weights are 76 cm from his rotation axis. If he pulls his hands in to his chest, so they’re essentially on his ro- tation axis, how fast will he be spinning?

Answer:

6.13428 rev/s

Explanation:

I_f = Final moment of inertia = 4.2 kgm²

I = Moment of inertia with fists close to chest = 5.7 kgm²

\omega_i = Initial angular speed = 3 rev/s

\omega_f = Final angular speed

r = Radius = 76 cm

m = Mass = 2.5 kg

Moment of inertia of the skater is given by

I_i=I+2mr^2

In this system the angular momentum is conserved

L_f=L_i\\\Rightarrow I_f\omega_f=I_i\omega_i\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{I_i\omega_i}{I_f}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{(5.7+2\times 2.5\times 0.76^2)3}{4.2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=6.13428\ rev/s

The rotational speed will be 6.13428 rev/s

# 7 the answer is 4) because you need opposites in order to attract

# 8 I'm going to guess it is 4) because electricity is needed in order a light bolt to work.(don't take my word for this one I'm not sure but, the other answer are correct)

# 9  the answer is 4) because the comb dose collect negative charges from the hair in order to make the hair have positive charge.


Hope this helped : )

What happens to the appearance of an object as it gets hotter?
lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

When an object is heated then it becomes brighter and bluish compared to the initial condition. This happens because when an object is given heat then the electron in the ground state gets excited and reaches some higher state. After reaching a higher state electron make the transition to lower state and simultaneously exhibit the color which is visible with naked eyes.

If a puddle of water is frozen, do the particles in the ice have kinetic energy? Explain.
TEA [102]
They have some but not very much, the particles in the ice are still vibrating just not as much as in water. the only time a substance would have 0 kinetic energy is when that substance is at 0 degrees kelvin(absolute zero) so far no place in the universe has been recorded at absolute zero though
