- A figure skater brings her arms up to her body A figure skater spins at angular speed rotation of 2 revolutions per second with its two perpendicular arms to his body: in this position, his moment of inertia is 3 kg.m^2. When she brings her arms to her body, its moment of inertia is only 1.5 kg.m^2: calculate its rotational kinetic energy in this position.
