A block weighing 100 lbs is placed on a rotating platform. The coefficient of friction between the block and the platform is 0.20. Determine the angular velocity that the platform should be rotated before the block slips outward if the block is placed 5ft, 8ft, and10ft from the center of the platform.

A diver off the high board imparts an initial rotation with his body fully extended before going into a tuck and executing three back somersaults before hitting the water. If his moment of inertia before the tuck is 16.9kgm2 and after the tuck during the somersaults is 4.2kgm2 , what rotation rate must he impart to his body directly off the board and before the tuck if he takes 1.4 s to execute the somersaults before hitting the water?
An ice skater is preparing for a jump with turns and has his arms extended. His moment of inertia is 1.8kgm2 while his arms are extended, and he is spinning at 0.5 rev/s. If he launches himself into the air at 9.0 m/s at an angle of 45 with respect to the ice, how many revolutions can he execute while airborne if his moment of inertia in the air is 0.5kgm2 ?
