Analysis
Angular momentum L is equal to the moment of inertia I
times the angular velocity
ω
. Calculate L
o
, the angular
momentum before each collision, and L
f
, the angular
momentum after the collision. For I, use 1/2 MR
2
for
the platters (the step pulley can be safely neglected),
MR
2
for the ring, and 1/12 M(A
2
+ B
2
) for the bar (see
Figure 5.2). Check the conservation of angular momen-
tum by calculating the percentage difference between L
o
and L
f
in each case.
If instructed, calculate the initial and final rotational kinetic energy, showing your results in
Table 5.2. Was RKE conserved in the collisions?

I = 1/12 M(A
