Explanation:

The complete question is

A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, It is true to say that

A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.

B) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed decreases.

C) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed remains the same.

D) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed increases.

E) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed decreases

In angular momentum conservation, the initial angular momentum of the system is conserved, and is equal to the final angular momentum of the system. The equation of this angular momentum conservation is given as

$I_{1} w_{1} = I_{2} w_{2}$ ....1

where $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ are the initial and final moment of inertia respectively.

and $w_{1}$ and $w_{2}$ are the initial and final angular speed respectively.

Also, we know that the moment of inertia of a rotating body is given as

$I = mr^{2}$ ....2

where $m$ is the mass of the rotating body,

and $r$ is the radius of the rotating body from its center.

We can see from equation 2 that decreasing the radius of rotation of the body will decrease the moment of inertia of the body.

From equation 1, we see that in order for the angular momentum to be conserved, the decrease from $I_{1}$ to $I_{2}$ will cause the angular speed of the system to increase from $w_{1}$ to $w_{2}$ .

From this we can clearly see that reducing the radius of rotation will decrease the moment of inertia, and increase the angular speed.

Help meee please fill in the blanks !!

The atomic number is the simply the number of protons in the atom. So in the first row with atomic number 2, the number of protons is 2.

If the atom has no charge, which I think you can assume for all of these, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So the number of electrons is also 2.

The number of neutrons (which are the particles with no charge in the nucleus) is simply the mass number minus the atomic number i.e. 4 - 2 = 2.

The isotopic symbol is the symbol which is found on the periodic table of elements. There are 2 numbers associated which each element on the table. The larger is the mass number and the smaller is the atomic number. The atomic number or number of protons is what identifies the element. Looking at the periodic table ( https://sciencenotes.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/PeriodicTableOfTheElementsBW.pdf or https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(big) ), it can be seen that the element on the first row above with an atomic number of 2 is Helium with a symbol He. The number that is included with the name is simply the mass number which is 4 in this case, which tells us that this type of helium has 2 neutrons.

Another type (or isotope) of helium is Helium-3 which has one neutron.
