A speed skater goes around a turn that has a radius of \(31 \, \text{m}\). The skater has a speed of \(14 \, \text{m/s}\) and experiences a centripetal force of \(460 \, \text{N}\). What is the mass of the skater?
A windmill blade with a rotational inertia of \( 6.0 \) \( \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) has an initial angular velocity of \( 8 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) in the clockwise direction.

A point P is at a distance \( R \) from the axis of rotation of a rigid body whose angular velocity and angular acceleration are \( \omega \) and \( \alpha \) respectively. The linear speed, centripetal acceleration, and tangential acceleration of the point can be expressed as:
