Can the diver of Fig. ymn n*ael02,g0btwxn c-o +k.cy+r v0fk68l a 8–29 do a somersault without having any initial rotation wb-ycx c+00k6a .+no 8rtwlvfkhen she leaves the board?
参考答案:
In order to do a somersault, the
diver needs some initial angular momentum when she leaves the diving board,
because angular momentum will be conserved during the free-fall motion of the
dive.She cannot exert a torque on
herself in isolation, and so if there is no angular momentum initially, there
will be no rotation during the rest of the dive.
