Hi friends,
Here is a typical problem
https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/432331_2639240957573_1038427614_n.jpg
It is an elastic collision. Here I am applying simply the conservation of linear momentum as,
Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision
i.e.
Total translational K.E. of the block will be transferred to the disk. Hence disc's COM will have velocity v after collision. and hence the angular velocity be ω = v/r.
But this is not the correct answer. The correct answer is option (b).
Please friends help me in this problem.
Thank you all in advance.
