According to the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum, if I1 (moment of inertia) increases, what will happen to ?2? I1?1 = I2?2 A. Increase B. Decrease C. No change

Step 1
So, we have: I1w1 = I2w2 Now, if I1 increases, we can write the equation as: (I1 + ΔI)w1 = I2w2 To maintain the equality, if I1 increases, w2 must decrease. Show more…

The angular velocity of the body changes from $\omega_{1}$ to $\omega_{2}$ without applying torque but by changing moment of inertia. The initial radius of gyration to the final radius of gyration is (a) $\omega_{2}: \omega_{1}$ (b) $\omega_{2}^{2}: \omega_{1}^{2}$ (c) $\sqrt{\omega_{2}}: \sqrt{\omega_{1}}$ (d) $\frac{1}{\omega_{2}}: \frac{1}{\omega_{1}}$
A mass $M$ is moving with a constal to $x$-axis. Its angular momentum w.r.t. origin (a) is zero (b) remains constant (c) goes on increasing (d) goes on decreasing $=$
