Angular Momentum in an Inelastic Collision

[QUOTE="NP04, post: 6181611, member: 661237"] [B]Homework Statement:[/B] See image. [B]Relevant Equations:[/B] Moment of inertia of end rod = 1/3ml^2 [ATTACH type="full"]243853[/ATTACH] I was wondering why in the video the moment of inertia for the clay ball (upon collision) was simply 1ml^2. That is the constant for a hollow cylinder. The problem specifies that the object is a ball, so the cylinder classification makes no sense, and also I'm pretty sure clay is rather dense of a material. Shouldn't it instead be 2/5ml^2? That is the constant for a solid sphere through its center. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
