A ballet dancer of moment of inertia I is spinning about the vertical axis with an angular velocity of 20 rad/s. If she suddenly changes her angular velocity to 10 rad/s, then new moment of inertia would be ?

plz .. help me with this prblm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Plz.. help

Inertia becomes double...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[L=I \omega \] so decrease in angular velocity... Causes increase in inertia... with the same ratio...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kz.. thanx ..:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

L = angular momentum, which will change with angular velocity I - moment of inertia, sum of mass times [distance from center of gravity] squared, and this is geometrical and not changed by changing her angular velocity. I is like mass and L is like momentum.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya i got it .. thanx..:)

Hello guys... you should read the example of a sea diver... when when his angular velocity increases inertia decresase ..... so inertia and angular velocity have inverse relations...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup.. i will look at that example ..:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanx for suggesting ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

welcome

Example of a diver.. Proof.
