A vinyl record spins freely on a frinctionless turntable.  The mass of the record is 0.10 kg, the radius is 0.10 m, the rotational inertia is 5.0 x 10-4 kgm2 and it rotates with angular speed of 4.7 rad/s.  A 0.024 kg piece of clay falls on the edge of the record.  Determine the angular speed of the record right after the clay sticks to it. Use conservation of momentum.
