A large wooden wheel (mass 2 kg, radius 0.5 m) is mounted on an axle so as to rotate freely about its center. A bullet of mass and speed(10g,100m/s) is shot and moves in a straight line (neglect gravity) tangential to the wheel and strikes its edge, lodging in it at the rim. The wheel is initially at rest. Your goal is to figure out how fast it will rotate after the collision. What is the initial angular momentum of the system (bullet + wheel)? After the bullet lodges in the rim, what is the moment of inertia of the bullet + wheel? What is the final angular speed of the wheel?

Find the total kinetic energy of a dumbbell of total mass m when it is rotating at an angular speed of w, and its center of mass is moving translationally with a speed of v. Denote the dumbell's moment of inertia about its center of mass as Icm. If you approximate the spheres as point mass of m/2 each located at a distance of r from the center, you can find an approximation for the center of mass (though it is not required for this problem).
