Suppose that the moment of inertia of a skater with arms out and one leg extended is 3.5 kg⋅m2 and for arms and legs in is 0.80
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

1.3  rev/s

Explanation:

I_{o} = Moment of inertia when arms and one leg of the skater is out = 3.5 kgm²

I_{i} = Moment of inertia when arms and  legs of the skater are in = 0.80 kgm²

w_{i} = Angular speed of skater when arms and  legs of the skater are in = 5.5 rev/s

w_{o} = Angular speed of skater when arms and  legs of the skater are out = ?

Using conservation of angular momentum

I_{i} w_{i} = I_{o} w_{o}

(0.80) (5.5) = (3.5) w_{o}

w_{o} = 1.3 rev/s

A 68.0-kg person jumps from rest off a 2.20-m-high tower straight down into the water. Neglect air resistance during the descent
Margarita [4]

Answer:

F= 1333.767\,N

Explanation:

The velocity of the swimmer just before touching the water is:

v = -\sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (2.20\,m)}

v \approx 6.569\,\frac{m}{s}

The average force exerted on the diver by the water is determined by the use of the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

(68\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot (2.20\,m) +\frac{1}{2}\cdot (68\,kg)\cdot (6.569\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-F\cdot(2.20\,m) = 0\,J

F= 1333.767\,N
