Chapter 14, Problem 8IP
A volleyball player’s 3.7-kg arm moves at an average angular velocity of 15 rad/s during execution of a spike. If the average moment of inertia of the extending arm is 0.45 kg m2, what is the average radius of gyration for the arm during the spike? (Answer: 0.35 m)

A) Describe the difference between strength and power during a squat. Provide a quantitative example that illustrates the difference.
B) During a squat, the weight you have on your shoulders has a certain amount of gravitational potential energy. As you squat down and come to a stop at the bottom of the squat, some of that energy is lost. Where does it go?
