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.

O How are electricity and magnetism related?
Nataly [62]
Magnetism is the product of a moving charged particle. We can have electricity without magnetism but we can not have magnetism without electricity.An electro magnet is made so that we have a soft metal core and electricity around it. A bar magnet is a normal magnet in bar shape with permanent magnetism.

Where are the most reactive nonmetal elements found on the periodic table?
Sindrei [870]

Answer;

At the top of group 17

Explanation;

Reactivity in chemistry deals with whether something will react with another substance. The reactivity of an element can be predicted based on its location on the periodic table.

The most reactive nonmetal is fluorine. Fluorine is a halogen, which is Group 17 on the periodic table, and the halogens are the most reactive nonmetals. This is because they all have one empty space in their valence electron shells. Of the halogens, fluorine's empty space is closest to the positively charged nucleus. This means it pulls harder on another atom's electrons to fill that empty space.
