QUESTION 1 A batter swings a 0.9 m long bat. Assume the bat has a mass of 0.6 kg the bat rotates at 3 rad/s. The kinetic energy of the bat is, J. 1 3 (Hint: Approximate the bat by a rod, or a long thin cylinder, and use I=-ML2 for the rotational inertia of a rod of mass M and length L rotating around its end perpendicular to its length)
