Question

The moment of inertia about the axis of rotation of the remainder of his body is constant and equal to 0.483kgm^2 If the skater's original angular speed is 0.388rev/s , what is his final angular speed?

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 (See the figure below (Figure 1) .) When the skater?s 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 8.25kg When outstretched. they span 182m : when wrapped. they form a cylinder of radius 20-1cm The moment of inertia about the axis of rotation of the remainder of his body is constant and equal to 0.483kgm^2 If the skater's original angular speed is 0.388rev/s , what is his final angular speed?

Explanation / Answer

for answer sake its 5.004 rev/s
