    How Does Adding Mass Affect the Angular Momentum of a Rotating System?

    A device consists of eight balls each of mass 0.8 kg attached to the ends of low-mass spokes of length 1.2 m, so the radius of rotation of the balls is 0.6 m. The device is mounted in the vertical plane. The axle is held up by supports that are not shown, and the wheel is free to rotate on the...

    "Calculate Angular Momentum of Rotating Barbell

    Homework Statement A barbell consists of two small balls, each with mass 550 grams (0.55 kg), at the ends of a very low mass rod of length d = 20 cm (0.2 m). The center of the barbell is mounted on the end of a low mass rigid rod of length b = 0.3 m (see Figure), and this rod rotates...
