You are sitting on a freely rotating bar-stool with your arms
stretched out and a heavy glass mug in each hand. Your
friend gives you a twist and you start rotating around a
vertical axis though the center of the stool. You can assume
that the bearing the stool turns on is frictionless, and that
there is no net external torque present once you have started
spinning. You now pull your arms and hands (and mugs)
close to your body.
What happens to the angular momentum as you
pull in your arms?

A puck slides in a circular path on a horizontal frictionless table.
It is held at a constant radius by a string threaded through a

Problem 7
Occasionally, a rotating neutron star undergoes a sudden and
unexpected speedup called a glitch. One explanation is that a
glitch occurs when the crust of the neutron star settles slightly,
decreasing the moment of inertia about the rotation axis. A
neutron star with angular speed 0=70.4 rad/s underwent such
a glitch in October 1975 that increased its angular speed to
0, where /0=2.01x10-6. If the radius of the neutron
star before the glitch was 11 km, by now how much did its
radius decrease in the starquake? Assume that the neutron
star is a uniform sphere.

released from rest at the top of a hill 58.0 m
high.
(a) How fast is it rolling when it reaches the
bottom of the hill?
(b) How would your answer change if the
linear mass density and the diameter of
the wheel were each doubled?

Problem 11 (cont’d)
l 25.0 g/cm
Solution
(a) Conservation of energy:
No sliding
U1  K1  U2  K2
U1  Mgh , K1  0,U 2  0, M  mrim  6mspokes
K 2  (1 / 2) Mv 2  (1 / 2) I 2
h= 58.0 m
I  I rim  I spokes  mrimr 2  6(mspoker 2 / 3)
mrim  l 2r, mspoke  lr  M  2rl (  3)
2 Rl (  3) gh  (1 / 2)( 2rl )(  3)( r)2 
(1 / 2)[ 2rlr  6(lrr / 3)]

  [(  3) gh ] /[ R 2 (  2)]  124 rad / s
(b) Doubling the density would have no effect! As   1/ r, doubling the
diameter would reduce the angular velocity by half. But v  r would
be unchanged.
