A diver makes 2.5 revolutions on the way from a 11-m-high platform to the water. Assuming zero initial vertical velocity, find the diver's average angular velocity during a dive.
Added by Gregory F.
Step 1
Since the diver makes 2.5 revolutions, and each revolution is equal to 360 degrees, the total angle covered is: Total angle = 2.5 revolutions * 360 degrees/revolution = 900 degrees Show more…

A Diver A diver makes $2.5$ revolutions on the way from a $10-\mathrm{m}$ high platform to the water. Assuming zero initial vertical velocity, find the diver's average rotational velocity during a dive.
Yuva S.
A diver runs horizontally off the end of a diving tower $3.0 \mathrm{m}$ above the surface of the water with an initial speed of $2.6 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .$ During her fall she rotates with an average angular speed of $2.2 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s}$. (a) How many revolutions has she made when she hits the water? (b) How does your answer to part (a) depend on the diver 's initial speed? Explain.
