Consider the pencil in Problem 26. What is the angular momentum of the pencil just before it
Question:
Consider the pencil in Problem 26. What is the angular momentum of the pencil just before it strikes the table?
Concerned with the magnitude of the angular momentum, not its sign.
Data from problem 26
A pencil (mass 10 g and length 15 cm) is initially balanced so that it is sitting vertically on a flat table as shown in Figure P9.26. If the pencil then falls, what is its angular velocity just before it strikes the tabletop? Assume the mass of the pencil is distributed uniformly and the end of the pencil in contact with the table does not slip.
Figure P9.26?
