Suppose your teacher is showing a thought experiment in a gravity free space. He struck a thin rod of M and length L at one end by a clay ball of mass m moving with speed v. The ball sticks to the end of the rod. Now to check your knowledge about rotational mechanics, he asks you to find out the angular momentum of the clay-rod system about the midpoint of the rod. Select the correct answer.

In the figure, a 5.25 g bullet is fired into a 0.547 kg block attached to the end of a 0.718 m nonuniform rod of mass 0.117 kg. The block- rod-bullet system then rotates in the plane of the figure, about a fixed axis at A. The rotational inertia of the rod alone about A is 0.0577 kg-m2. Treat the block as a particle.

Consider the figure above consisting of three particles of mass m attached to a massless rod. Given an axis of rotation through point P, the rod rotates as shown in the figure. If the rod is released from rest in the horizontal position at t = 0. What is the angular acceleration of the system (rod and three particles) immediately after being released? Let d = 2.00 m.

A block of mass m is moving with speed v along a horizontal surface when it collides with a uniform rod of mass 2m and length L attached at one end to a pivot. The surface and pivot have negligible friction. The rod is vertical when the block collides with the end of the rod. The block sticks to the rod, and the block-rod system rotates so that the end of the rod reaches a height h, as shown above. The total rotational inertia of the rod about the pivot is 2mL/3. Express answers in parts (a), (b), and (c) in terms of m, L, v, and physical constants as appropriate. c. Derive an expression for the mechanical energy dissipated during the collision.
A disc of radius R = 0.41 m and of mass M = 1.22 kg is rotating with the initial angular momentum ωi = 0.51 rev/s on a frictionless horizontal plane. You drop a small clay piece of mass m = 0.19 kg vertically, it lands, and is stuck on a point of the rim of the disc at the distance R = 0.41 m from the center of the disc (Fig.9). The initial moment of inertia of the disk about the axis of rotation through its center is Ii = MR2/2. What is the angular velocity of the disc-clay system in rev/s after the collision? Keep three significant figures for the answer. Note the clay piece has negligible size so that it can be treated as a point.
