The outstretched hands and arms of a figure skater preparing for a spin can be considered a slender rod pivoting about an axis t

hrough its center. When his hands and arms are brought in and wrapped around his body to execute the spin, the hands and arms can be considered a thin-walled hollow cylinder. His hands and arms have a combined mass of 9.0 kg. When outstretched, they span 1.7 m; when wrapped, they form a cylinder of radius 26 cm. The moment of inertia about the rotation axis of the remainder of his body is constant and equal to 0.40 kg * m2. If his original angular speed is 0.30 rev/s, what is his final angular speed?

Answer:

W_f =4.7968 rad/s

Explanation:

By the law of the conservation of the angular momentum L:

L_i = L_f

Where:

L_i=I_iW_i

L_f=I_fW_f

where I_i is the inicial moment of inertia, W_i is the initial angular velocity,  I_f is the final moment of inertia and W_f is the final angular velocity.

Replacing:

I_iW_i = I_fW_f

Now, we have to change the angular velocity from revolutions to radians as:

W_i=0.3*2\pi rad/s

W_i=1.884 rad/s

Then, we find the initial moment of inertia (I_i) as:

I_i = \frac{1}{12}(M)(R_1)^2+0.4

I_i = \frac{1}{12}(9 kg)(1.7m)^2+0.4

I_i = 2.5675 kg*m^2

Where M is the mass of his hands and arms and R1 is the length of his arms and hands whe they are outstretched.

Now we find the final moment of inertia (I_f) as:

I_f = MR_2^2+0.4

I_f = (9)(0.26)^2+0.4

I_ f = 1.0084 kg*m^2

Where R2 is the radius of the cylinder formed.

Finally we replace all in the first equation as:

I_iW_i = I_fW_f

(2.5675)(1.884) = (1.0084)W_f

Solving for W_f, we get:

W_f =4.7968 rad/s

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

<em>For this case we have that by definition, the social sciences group all the scientific disciplines whose object of study is linked to the activities and behavior of human beings. The social sciences, therefore, analyze the manifestations of society, both material and symbolic.</em>

The surrounding natural environment is an environment that is mostly social. Therefore, using, using the mentioned definition, we need to consulate a social scientist.

This person can give information about the behavior of humans in social areas.

Then, Janet can get help from a social scientist.

A particle moves along a straight line. Its position at any instant is given by x = 32t− 38t^3/3 where x is in metre and t in se
Rudik [331]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is -69.78 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

postion of the particle:

x = 32t - 38\frac{t^3}{3} \\\\

The velocity of the particle is calculated as the change in the position of the  particle with time;

v = \frac{dx}{dt} = 32 - 38t^2\\\\when \ the \ particle \ is \ at \ rest, \ v = 0\\\\32-38t^2 = 0\\\\38t^2 = 32\\\\t^2 = \frac{32}{38} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{32}{38} } \\\\t = 0.918 \ s

Acceleration is the change in velocity with time;

a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -76t\\\\recall , \ t = 0.918 \ s\\\\a = -76(0.918)\\\\a = -69.78 \ m/s^2
