A rod of mass M and length l moves across a frictionless surface with a speed v. It hits a stationary blob of mass m on one end of the board and sticks, causing the rod and blob to rotate as the systems continues traveling across the frictionless surface. (a) What is the new center of mass with respect to the original center of mass? (b) What is the angular velocity in terms of the center of mass (i.e., leave the center of mass as a variable, xcm)?

A solid sphere of mass, M = 5.0 kg, and radius, R = 0.100 m is placed on two blocks so that it’s centre of mass lies at the origin as shown on the right. A bullet of mass, m = 0.100 kg, and with an x coordinate of b = 0.04 m strikes the sphere from below with a vertical velocity, v = 65 m/s and embeds in the sphere coming to rest at the location (-b,0) in the diagram below. Since there is no momentum in the horizontal direction, after the bullet hits the sphere , it will rise up to some maximum height and then fall back to its initial position on the two blocks. While the sphere is in the air it will rotate. What is the magnitude of the angle (in degrees) through which the sphere will rotate before it makes contact with the two blocks again?

Objects with a uniform mass distribution and a symmetric shape have a center of mass at the center of the object. For non-uniform objects, the center of mass needs to be determined experimentally. To measure the center of mass of such an object, a pivot is placed in the middle of a board and the top of the non-uniform object is placed to the right of the pivot. When a uniform 10.0 kg mass has its center placed 60.0 cm to the left of the pivot the system balances perfectly (as shown below). The mass of the non-uniform object is measured with an electronic scale in the lab and found to beM = 39.8 kg .
