The 80-kg man is holding two dumbbells while standing on a
turntable of negligible mass,which turns freely about a
vertical axis.When his arms are fully extended, the turn–
table is rotating with an angular velocity of .
Determine the angular velocity of the man when he retracts
his arms to the position shown. When his arms are fully
extended, approximate each arm as a uniform 6-kg rod
having a length of 650 mm,and his body as a 68-kg solid
cylinder of 400-mm diameter. With his arms in the retracted
position, assume the man as an 80-kg solid cylinder of 450-mm
diameter. Each dumbbell consists of two 5-kg spheres of
negligible size.

SOLUTION
Conservation of Angular Momentum: Since no external angular impulse acts on the
system during the motion, angular momentum about the axis of rotation (zaxis) is
conserved. The mass moment of inertia of the system when the arms are in the fully
extended position is
