FIGURE 3 shows an ice skater has a moment of inertia of 4 kg m² when her arms wrap her body and 16 kg m² when her arms are stretched. When the two arms are pressed against her body, the speed of the skater's rotation is 12 rotations per second. If then the arms are stretched, how much does the rotation speed become? [3 marks]
