An ice skater is spinning on frictionless ice with her arms extended outward. She then pulls her arms in toward her body, reducing her moment of inertia. Her angular momentum is conserved, so as she reduces her moment of inertia, her angular velocity increases and she spins faster. Compared to her initial rotational kinetic energy, her final rotational kinetic energy is

The image below shows numerous volcanic mountains in the pacific northwest. what is the most likely cause of the volcanic and earthquake activity in this region?

Automobile fuel efficiency is often measured in miles that the car can be driven per gallon of fuel (mpg). heavier cars tend to have lower fuel efficiencies (lower mpg ratings). which variable (weight or fuel efficiency) is most naturally considered the explanatory (predictor) variable in this context?

Astone is thrown with a speed v0 and returns to earth, as the drawing shows. ignore friction and air resistance, and consider the initial and final locations of the stone. which one of the following correctly describes the change δpe in the gravitational potential energy and the change δke in the kinetic energy of the stone as it moves from its initial to its final location? options a.δpe = 0 j and δke = 0 j b.δpe is positive and δke is negative c.δpe = 0 j and δke is positive d.δpe is negative and δke is positive e.δpe = 0 j and δke is negative
