A 45 kg figure skater is spinning on the toes of her skates at 1.3 rev/s. Her arms are outstretched as far as they will go. In this orientation, the skater can be modeled as a cylindrical torso (40 kg, 20 cm average diameter, 160 cm tall) plus two rod-like arms (2.5 kg each, 71 cm long) attached to the outside of the torso. The skater then raises her arms straight above her head. In this latter orientation, she can be modeled as a 45 kg, 20-cm-diameter, 200-cm-tall cylinder.

A propeller consists of two blades each 1.30 m in length and mass 20.0 kg each. The propeller can be approximated by a single rod rotating about its center of mass. The propeller starts from rest and rotates up to 2200 rpm in 30 seconds at a constant rate. What is the angular momentum of the propeller at t = 10 s?

Divers change their body position in midair while rotating about their center of mass. In one dive, the diver leaves the board with her body nearly straight, then tucks into a somersault position. If the moment of inertia of the diver in a straight position is 14 kg ⋅ m2 and in a tucked position is 4.0 kg ⋅ m2, by what factor does her angular speed increase?
Eight children, each of mass 40 kg, climb on a small merry-go-round. They position themselves evenly on the outer edge and join hands. The merry-go-round has a radius of 4.0 m and a moment of inertia 1000.0 kg · m2 . After the merry-go-round is given an angular velocity of 6.0 rev/min, the children walk inward and stop when they are 0.75 m from the axis of rotation. What is the new angular velocity of the merry-go-round? Assume there is negligible frictional torque on the structure.
On average, both arms and hands together account for 13% of a person's mass, while the head is 7.0% and the trunk and legs account for 80%. We can model a spinning skater with her arms outstretched as a vertical cylinder (head, trunk, and legs) with two solid uniform rods (arms and hands) extended horizontally. Suppose a 75.0 kg skater is 1.80 m tall, has arms that are each 66.0 cm long (including the hands), and a trunk that can be modeled as being 33.0 cm in diameter. If the skater is initially spinning at 82.0 rpm with her arms outstretched, what will her angular velocity ?2 be (in rpm) after she pulls in her arms and they are at her sides parallel to her trunk? Assume that friction between the skater and the ice is negligble.

A skater is spinning about a fixed symmetrical vertical axis. When she lifts her arms above her head, her moment of inertia about this axis of rotation drops from 12.0 kg m2 to 8.00 kg m2. What is the ratio of her final rotational energy and her initial rotational energy?
Two kids, each with a mass of 25.0 kg, are standing at the edge of a merry-go-round. Treat both kids as point masses. The merry-go-round is a uniform disk with a mass of 97.5 kg and a radius of 1.25 meters, which is free to rotate about its center of mass without friction. The moment of inertia of a solid disk rotating about its center of mass is given by I = MR2 /2 , and the moment of inertia of a point mass is given by I = mr2 . The merry go round is initially rotating at 12.5 revolutions per minute (rpm). a) If both kids walk to the center of the merry-go-round, what will the final angular speed be, in rpm? Hint: use conservation of angular momentum. b) What is the change in the total kinetic energy of the disk and the two kids during this process? Give your answer in units of Joules (J)

A solid disk rotates in the horizontal plane at an angular velocity of 0.042 rad/s with respect to an axis perpendicular to the disk at its center. The moment of inertia of the disk is 0.089 kg·m2. From above, sand is dropped straight down onto this rotating disk, so that a thin uniform ring of sand is formed at a distance 0.29 m from the axis. The sand in the ring has a mass of 0.42 kg. After all the sand is in place, what is the angular velocity of the disk?
An ice skater is preparing for a jump with turns and has his arms extended. His moment of inertia is 1.8 kg · m2 while his arms are extended, and he is spinning at 0.5 rev/s.
