A lawnmower blade has a length of 0.75 m and a mass of 1.5 kg. The blade rotates around its center at an angular velocity of 500. The end of the blade hits a 0.25 kg croquet ball| (point mass), and the ball sticks to min the blade. Before the collision, the ball was stationary. After the collision, the ball will be moving at the same angular velocity as the blade at a distance of half of the blade length from the axis of rotation. Treat the blade as a rod rotating around its center. The final moment of inertia of the lawnmower blade and croquet ball combo is kgm².

A 45 kg figure skater is spinning on the toes of her skates at 1.5 rev/s. Her arms are outstretched as far as they will go. In this orientation, the skater can be modeled as a cylindrical torso (40 kg, 20 cm average diameter, 160 cm tall) plus two rod-like arms (2.5 kg each, 70 cm long) attached to the outside of the torso. The skater then raises her arms straight above her head. In this latter orientation, she can be modeled as a 45 kg, 20-cm-diameter, 200-cm-tall cylinder.What is her new rotation frequency, in revolutions per second?Express your answer in revolutions per second.

A thin rod with a length of 4.0 m and a mass of 4.2 kg is initially at rest. It is capable of spinning around a frictionless axle that goes through the top of the rod. A 2.5 kg mass of clay collides perfectly idealistically with the bottom of the rod. The clay was traveling perfectly horizontally with a speed of 12 m/s before the collision. How fast will the rod with the clay attached to it rotate around the axle in radians per second? The only external force on the clay/rod system come from the axle, which exerts no torque about itself.

A cylinder with a radius of 0.5 m and mass of 2.0 kg rolls down a frictionless ramp from a height of 3.6 m. At the very bottom of the ramp, it collides with, and sticks to, a 5.0 kg mass (i.e., it is a perfectly inelastic collision). This combined object now slides along the flat floor, where the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.56. How far does the combined object travel along the floor before coming to a stop? (Moment of inertia of cylinder is l=(1/2) mr2.)
