A 0.551 kg cat sits at the end of a 16.9 kg, 10.7 m long beam. An accident occurs and the support cable breaks, causing the beam to rotate without friction until it hits the wall. If the cat held onto the end of the beam what would its speed be as it impacts the wall? (however, it is smart and jumps off part way down)
