A Thin Rod Of Mass M 5 9 Kg And Length L 5 9 M Is Swinging Around A Fixed Frictionless Axle At One End It Hits A 1 (444.65 KiB) Viewed 28 times

= A thin rod of mass M = 5.9 kg and length L = 5.9 m is swinging around a fixed frictionless axle at one end. It hits a small puck of mass m = 1.7 kg sitting on a frictionless surface right under the pivot. Immediately before the collision, the rod was rotating at angular velocity w = 5.3 rad. Immediately after the collision, the small puck sticks to the end of the rod and swings together with it. What is the magnitude of the combined angular velocity of the rod and the small puck immediately after the collision, wf? You can treat the small puck as a point particle. Round your final answer to 1 decimal place and your final units in = S rad s 13 M m
