A cue ball of radius r is initially at rest on a horizontal pool table (Figure). It is struck by a horizontal cue stick that delivers a force of magnitude P0 for a very short time Δt. The stick strikes the ball at a point h above the ball’s point of contact with the table. Show that the ball’s initial angular velocity ω0 is related to the initial linear velocity of its center of mass v0 by ω0 = 5v0(h - r)/2r2.
