Question
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 64.0 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 72.0 rpm with her arms outstretched, what will her
angular velocity @o2 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.
