Suppose there were an axle at the origin with a rigid, but massless rod attached to it with bearings so that the rod could freely rotate. At the end of the rod, of length b, there is a block of mass M as shown below: b x0x0 v 0, m rod axle A bullet is fired at the block. If the bullet strikes the block and sticks, what will be the angular velocity of the block about the axle? Neglect gravity.

A block of mass M is cemented to a circular platform at a distance b from its center. The platform can rotate, without friction, about a vertical axle through its center with a moment of inertia, I p. If a bullet of mass m, moving horizontally with velocity of magnitude v B as shown, strikes and imbeds itself in the block, find the angular velocity of the platform after the collision. b top view vBvB axle

Ex. 4 A platform can rotate, without friction, about a vertical axle through its center with a moment of inertia, I p. A small bug of mass m is placed on the platform at a distance b from the center, and the system is set spinning with angular velocity 0 (Clockwise as viewed from above). a) What is the total angular momentum of the system with the bug at rest on the platform? b) What is the total angular momentum if he runs in the opposite direction to the platform’s rotation? c) Is it possible for a little bug to stop the big platform from rotating?

Two disks are spinning on a frictionless axle. The one on the left has mass M, radius R L, and moment of inertia about the axle I L. It is spinning with L in the direction shown. It is moving to the right with velocity of magnitude v 0. The one on the right has mass M, radius R R, and moment of inertia about the axle I R. It is spinning with R in the direction shown. It is moving to the left with velocity of magnitude v 0. When the two disks collide they stick together. What is the velocity and the angular velocity of the combined system after the collision?
6
A man stands on a platform which is free to rotate on frictionless bearings. He has his arms extended with a huge mass m in each hand. If he is set into rotation with angular velocity 0 and then drops his hands to his sides, what happens to his angular velocity? (Assume that the man’s mass is negligible and that his arms have length R when extended and are R/4 from the center of his body when at his sides.)

What is the moment of inertia of a disk of thickness h, radius R and total mass M about an axis through its center?

A rigid body in motion about a moving axis Motion of a rigid body: combination of translation motion of the center of mass and rotation about an axis through the center of mass.

A primitive yo-yo is made by wrapping a string several times around a solid cylinder with mass M and radius R. You hold the end of the string stationary while releasing the cylinder with no initial motion. The string unwinds but does not slip or stretch as the cylinder drops and rotates. Use energy considerations to find the speed v cm of the center of mass of the solid cylinder after it has dropped a distance h.
