A wad of sticky clay with mass m and velocity vSi is firedat a solid cylinder of mass M

Chapter 11, Problem 39

(choose chapter or problem)

A wad of sticky clay with mass m and velocity vSi is firedat a solid cylinder of mass M and radius R (Fig. P11.39).The cylinder is initially at rest and is mounted on afixed horizontal axle that runs through its center ofmass. The line of motion of the projectile is perpendicularto the axle and at a distance d , R from the center.(a) Find the angular speed of the system just afterthe clay strikes and sticks to the surface of the cylinder. (b) Is the mechanical energy of the claycylindersystem constant in this process? Explain your answer.(c) Is the momentum of the claycylinder system constantin this process? Explain your answer.
