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

Explanation:

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

Where:

where is the inicial moment of inertia, is the initial angular velocity,   is the final moment of inertia and is the final angular velocity.

Replacing:

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

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

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 () as:

Where R2 is the radius of the cylinder formed.

Finally we replace all in the first equation as:

Solving for , we get:

true

explanation:

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!
