Question:
A figure skater (Fig. 9.11) has an initial angular velocity of 3.8 rad/s. She then pulls her arms in, and her angular velocity increases to 9.5 rad/s. What is the ratio of her final kinetic energy to her initial kinetic energy??

Angular movements are produced when the angle between the bones of joint changes. There are several different types of angular movements, including flexion, extension, hyperextension, abduction, adduction, and circumduction. Flexion, or bending, occurs when the angle between the bones decreases. Moving the forearm upward at the elbow or moving the wrist to move the hand toward the forearm are examples of flexion. The extension is the opposite of flexion in that the angle between the bones of a joint increase.
