A diver comes off a board with arms straight up and legs straight down, giving her a moment of inertia about her rotation axis of 18kg - m². She then tucks into a small ball, decreasing this moment of inertia to 3.6kg - m². While tucked, she makes two complete revolutions in 1.3 s For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tutor Solution of Anyone can be a ballerina. Part A If she hadn't tucked at all, how many revolutions would she have made in the 1.5 s from board to water? Express your answer in revolutions. [Γ] ΑΣΦ ? 0.52 !

The dung beetle is known as one of the strongest animals for its size, often forming balls of dung up to 10 times their own mass and rolling them to locations where they can be buried and stored as food. A typical dung ball formed by the species K. nigroaeneus has a radius of 2.00 cm and is rolled by the beetle at 6.25 cm/s. (a) What is the rolling balls angular speed? (b) How many full rotations are required if the beetle rolls the ball a distance of 1.00 m?
Keratinocytes are the most common cells in the skins outer layer. As these approximately circular cells migrate across a wound during the healing process, they roll in a way that reduces the frictional forces impeding their motion. (a) Given a cell body diameter of 1.00 105 m (10 m), what minimum angular speed would be required to produce the observed linear speed of 1.67 107 m/s (10 m/min)? (b) How many complete revolutions would be required for the cell to roll a distance of 5.00 103 m? (Because of slipping as the cells roll, averages of observed angular speeds and the number of complete revolutions are about three times these minimum values.)
