A)  moment of inertia + angular velocity 
B)  angular velocity × linear velocity 
C)  moment of inertia × radius of rotation 
D)  moment of inertia × angular velocity 
E)  angular velocity × angular acceleration D

Question 2

Which would have a higher moment of inertia value about the longitudinal (head to toe) axis of rotation: Arms out fully extended to the sides or one arm out to the side and one arm down by the side of the athlete?

Accepted Answer

With both arms out to the sides would have a larger moment of inertia about the longitudinal axis in this example. Moving more mass away from the axis of rotation (longitudinal axis) will increase r and hence increase I (moment of inertia).
