Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 49CP
In Example 11.8, we investigated an elastic collision between a disk and a stick lying on a frictionless surface. Suppose everything is the same as in the example except that the collision is perfectly inelastic so that the disk adheres to the stick at the endpoint at which it strikes. Find (a) the speed of the center of mass of the system and (b) the angular speed of the system after the collision.

A cylinder with a radius of 0.5 m and mass of 2.0 kg rolls down a frictionless ramp from a
height of 3.6 m. At the very bottom of the ramp, it collides with, and sticks to, a 5.0 kg mass
(i.e., it is a perfectly inelastic collision). This combined object now slides along the flat floor,
where the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.56.
How far does the combined object travel along the floor before coming to a stop?
(Moment of inertia of cylinder is l=(1/2) mr2.)

Wind
energy
is gaining increased attention, generating an
increased interest in windmill technology. Because
windmill blades (vanes) rotate about a central axis, one of
the most important physical properties of a windmill is its
moment of inertia.
Given is a picture of a typical windmill, where the
Center
of mass
geometry and center of mass of one of the vanes is
illustrated. The mass of each vane is 207 kg. The distance
from the center of mass of the vane to axis B is
k, = 2.45 m. The distance from the center of mass of the
vane to the center of the windmill hub is k,
= 3.80 m.
If the moment of inertia of a vane about axis A is
241 kg-m2 and about axis B is 5860 kg-m2, calculate the
moment of inertia Itotal of the entire assembly about the
axis that passes through the windmill's hub and is
perpendicular to the screen. (Ignore the hub and assume
the vanes are flat.)
