Question

skater spins over a point at a speed of 3.0 rotations per second then the momentum of inertia is 0.60 kg.M2, what is its angular momentum?

Answer 1

Answer:

$L=11.3\ kg-m^2/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular speed of a skater, $\omega=3\ rot/s=18.84\ rad/s$

The moment of inertia of the skater, I = 0.6 kg-m²

We need to find the angular momentum of the skater. The formula for the angular momentum of the skater is given by :

$L=I\omega$

Substitute all the values,

$L=0.6\times 18.84\\\\L=11.3\ kg-m^2/s$

So, its angular momentum is equal to $11.3\ kg-m^2/s$.
