Problem 2 A rod of mass M 0 2 kg and length 1m is initially at rest and it is pivoted about one of its ends A mass m 0 05 kg is moving with a speed vo 20 m sec towards the rod at a distance d 0 5 m from the pivot The mass m then gets embedded in the mass M and the system begins to rotate about the pivot after the collision The moment of inertia of a rod about one of its ends is I M and the moment of inertia of a particle is I mr a What is the angular speed w of the m M system after the collision Hint Angular Momentum is conserved about the pivot b What is the kinetic energy of the system before the collision c What is the kinetic energy of the system after the collision m vo Initial pivot M l Final pivot M d 8 me W
