Modern wind turbines generate electricity from wind power. The large, massive blades have a large moment of inertia and carry a great amount of angular momentum when rotating. A wind turbine has a total of 3 blades. Each blade has a mass of m = 5500 kg distributed uniformly along its length and extends a distance r = 44 m from the center of rotation. The turbine rotates with a frequency of f = 12 rpm.

a. Calculate the total moment of inertia of the wind turbine about its axis, in units of kilogram meters squared.
b. Calculate the angular momentum of the wind turbine, in units of kilogram meters squared per second.

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?
