An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kgm2 when her arms are outstretched. at this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolution

s per second (rps). if she pulls in her arms and decreases her moment of inertia to 2.0 kgm2, how fast will she be spinning?

With arms outstretched,
Moment of inertia is I = 5.0 kg-m².
Rotational speed is ω = (3 rev/s)*(2π rad/rev) = 6π rad/s
The torque required is
T = Iω = (5.0 kg-m²)*(6π rad/s) = 30π 

Assume that the same torque drives the rotational motion at a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg-m².
If u = new rotational speed (rad/s), then
T = 2u = 30π
u = 15π rad/s
   = (15π rad/s)*(1 rev/2π rad)
   = 7.5 rev/s

Answer: 7.5  revolutions per second.

A girl and boy pull in opposite directions on a stuffed animal. The girl exerts a force of 3.5 N. The mass of the stuffed animal
Dmitry [639]
The resultant force on the animal = Resultant mass * total acceleration 
F = 0.2 * 2.5 to the right
F = 0.5 to the right.

As, girl exerting a force of 3.5 N & it's not mentioned that she is in right or left, so the force exerting by boy would be either:
3.5-0.5 = 3  OR  3.5+0.5 = 4

If boy exerting a greater force then, answer will be 4 N & if girl exerting a greater force the, answer will be 3 N

Hope this helps!

Describe what would happen if you rubbed a mineral with a Mohs hardness value of 7 against a mineral with a value of 5?
chubhunter [2.5K]
The mineral with Mohs hardness would be scratched because the mineral with Mohs 7 hardness is stronger than the Mohs 5 mineral. Eventually, that mineral would turn into dust if you kept rubbing it.

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False
FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.

Which is a scalar quantity displacement distance force acceleration​
cestrela7 [59]

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time. A vector is a quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.

I hope this helps you.
