AI Generated Solution

To understand how a swimmer jumping into water from a height can make a loop in the air, we can analyze the situation using the principles of angular momentum. Here’s a step-by-step explanation: ### Step 1: Understanding Angular Momentum Angular momentum (L) is defined as the product of the moment of inertia (I) and the angular velocity (ω) of an object. The formula is given by: \[ L = I \cdot \omega \] ### Step 2: Conservation of Angular Momentum According to the law of conservation of angular momentum, if no external torque acts on a system, the total angular momentum of that system remains constant. This means: ...
