A potter's wheel has moment of inertia Iy about its center and is spinning freely at W; = 91.9 rpm when a small lump of clay is dropped onto and sticks to the wheel a distance d from the wheel's center. Find the clay's mass if the system's angular speed after the collision is wf = 88.3 rpm with Iw = 2.3 kg•m?, and d = 0.36 m. [Hint: Be careful with units.] m = kg Report your numerical answer below, assuming three significant figures. Remember to include a "-"when necessary.
