A man is standing on a turntable that is on a frictionless axle. Initially he is stationary. Then a ball of mass m = 1.73 kg is thrown directly into his hand at a speed vo = 6.44 m/s. With his arm outstretched, the distance from his shoulder (at the axis of rotation) is d = 0.71 m and theta = 39.9 degrees. He catches and holds the ball. When he catches the ball, the man's moment of inertia (not including the ball) is Io = 0.99 kg m2. What is the final angular velocity of the man right after the ball is caught?
