Problem

0.050\,\text{kg}

lump of clay travels horizontally at

3.0\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1}

and sticks to the end of a uniform

0.60\,\text{m}

thin rod of mass

0.20\,\text{kg}

that is initially at rest and can rotate freely about its center. Determine the rod’s angular speed immediately after impact.
