Q- A uniform stick d = 1 m long with a total mass of 750 g is pivoted at its center by means of a friction-less peg. A 5.6 g bullet is shot through the stick midway between the pivot and one end. It approaches at v0 = 409 m/s and leaves at vf = 260 m/s.
- What is the moment of inertia of the stick about the pivot?
- What is the angular momentum of the bullet about the pivot before the collision?
- What is the angular momentum of the stick about the pivot after the collision?
- With what angular speed is the stick spinning after the collision?
- What is the net impulse, Istick exerted on the stick during the collision?
