m = 2.2 g = 2.2 x 10⁻³ kg, the mass of the bug.
r = 3.0 cm = 0.03 m, the radial distance from the center.
The angular speed is
ω = 280 rpm
= (280 rev/min)*(2π rad/rev)*(1/60 min/s)
= 29.3215 rad/s
The moment of inertia of the bug is
I = mr²
= (2.2 x 10⁻³ kg)*(0.03 m)²
= 1.98 x 10⁻⁶ kg-m²
Calculate the angular momentum of the bug.
J = Iω
= (1.98 x 10⁻⁶ kg-m²)*(29.3215 rad/s)
= 5.806 x 10⁻⁵ (kg-m²)/s
Answer: 5.806 x 10⁻⁵ (kg-m²)/s
