A physics 70 kg professor stands at the center of a frictionless turntable with arms outstretched (the length of each arm is 1.2 m) and a 2 kg dumbbell in each hand. He is set rotating about the vertical axis at 2.5 rad/s. Calculate the angular velocity if he pulls the dumbbells into his stomach (assume that both dumbbells are over the axis of rotation).
