Homework Statement
The question says:
A uniform solid cylinder rolling with angular velocity ##\omega## along a plane surface strikes a vertical rigid wall. With what angular velocity the cylinder begins to roll up the wall because of impulsive blow? It is observed it rolls without sliding after striking the wall.
- ##\omega##/2
- ##\omega##/3
- ##\omega##/5
- ##\omega##/4
Homework Equations
##I_1\omega _1=I_2\omega _2##
The Attempt at a Solution
Can we conserve angular momentum along the point at which the cylinder strikes the wall? I don't think so because that point gives an impulse to the cylinder.
