Answer:
The angular momentum is [tex]L = 8440.32 \ kg \cdot m^2 \cdot s^{-1}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the woman is [tex]m = 50 \ kg[/tex]
The angular speed of the rim is [tex]w = 0.80 \ rev/s = 0.8 * [\frac{2 \pi}{1} ] = 5.024 \ rad \cdot s^{-1}[/tex]
The mass of the disk is [tex]m_d = 110 \ kg[/tex]
The radius of the disk is [tex]r_d = 4.0 \ m[/tex]
The moment of inertia of the disk is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_D = \frac{1}{2} m_d r^2_d[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_D = \frac{1}{2} * 110 * 4^2[/tex]
[tex]I_D = 880 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
The moment of inertia of the woman is
[tex]I_w = m * r_d^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_w = 50 * 4^2[/tex]
[tex]I_w =800\ kg[/tex]
The moment of inertia of the system (the woman + the large disk ) is
[tex]I_t = I_w + I_D[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_t = 880 +800[/tex]
[tex]I_t =1680 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
The angular momentum of the system is
[tex]L = I_t w[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]L = 1680 * 5.024[/tex]
[tex]L = 8440.32 \ kg \cdot m^2 \cdot s^{-1}[/tex]
