Scooby (whose mass is 55 kg ) is running on an ice rink when his leash is caught on a pole and he starts sliding in a circle around the pole. Initially the leash is 3.2 m long and Scooby's angular velocity is 0.2rads. As Scooby circles the pole, his leash wraps around it and becomes shorter and shorter. How long is the leash (i.e. how far is Scooby from the pole, in m ) when his angular velocity is 0.9rads? Assume that Scooby can be modeled as a particle on a string. (7 pts)
