Thank you I got it!

If you are getting the same angular speed then I probably messed up the conservation of energy. 1/2 Iw^2=(M+m)gh 1/2 (0.0007875)(4.76)^2=(0.085)(9.8)(0.1676-0.1676coso) 0.008921=(0.085)(9.8)(0.1676-0.1676coso) 0.008921/(0.085)(9.8)=(0.1676-0.1676coso) 0.01071=(0.1676-0.1676coso)...

Well my question is why am I not getting the correct answer? Is there a mistake in how I approached the problem?

Homework Statement A 75 g, 30-cm-long rod hangs vertically on a frictionless, horizontal axle passing through its center. A 10 g ball of clay traveling horizontally at 2.5 m/s hits and sticks to the very bottom tip of the rod. To what maximum angle, measured from vertical, does the rod (with...

Hi there, I'm taking physics in high school at the moment and I hope I can learn a lot from you guys.
