    Minimum Vo for a hoop to get to the top

    Well, conservation of momentum: m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1+m2)v3 But this is if the object experiences inelastic collision, I don't know how to apply it when the other object is just a small bump. Conservation of angular momentum: Iw1= Iw2 since the hoop will rotate about the edge of the bump during...

    Minimum Vo for a hoop to get to the top

    Homework Statement part(b) and (c) Homework Equations Conservation of momentum Conservation of angular momentum Conservation of mechanical energy The Attempt at a Solution So first I thought that I could do it by just using the conservation of mechanical energy, but then I realized that since...
