Problem 3: Suppose we want to calculate the moment of inertia of a 65.5 kg skater, relative to a vertical axis through their center of mass. Part (a) First calculate the moment of inertia (in kg m2) when the skater has their arms pulled inward by assuming they are cylinder of radius 0.11 m. sin() cos() tan() 7 8 9 HOME cotan() asin() acos() E 4 5 atan() acotan() sinh() 1 3 cosh() tanh() cotanh() END ODegrees O Radians Vol BACKSPACE DEL CLEAR Submit Hint Feedback I give up! Part (b) Now calculate the moment of inertia of the skater (in kg m?) with their arms extended by assuming that each arm is 5% of the mass of their body. Assume the body is a cylinder of the same size, and the arms are 0.825 m long rods extending straight out from the center of their body being rotated at the ends.
A binary star system consists of two stars (one star with a mass of 4.0 x 10^36 kg and the second star having a mass of 3.1 x 10^34 kg) that are separated by a distance of 3 x 10^12 m. a) Determine the center of mass of the binary star system relative to the position of each star. b) Find the moment of inertia of the binary star system rotating around its center of mass.
As a physics demonstration, a special bowling ball is made so that it can be rotated about its center of mass to get a feel for how "big" a moment of inertia of 1 kg⋅m2 is. The average bowling ball has a weight of 15.4 lbs and a circumference of 26.3 inbut it does not have a moment of inertia equal to 1 kg⋅m2.Since the sporting goods manufacturer has no understanding of how "big" 1 kg⋅m21  is, calculate the diameter ? demo of the demo bowling ball, in inches, that it will need to manufacture. Assume that bowling balls are solid, with a constant density.   D of demo required in inches.
