[QUOTE="kuruman, post: 6850348, member: 192687"] Not so fast. Remember that every time you mention angular momentum you have to specify the axis about which this angular momentum is to considered. The two questions below refer to the situation where the putty is falling through the air before the collision. Assume that position of the putty relative to the center of the puck is described by the equation $$\mathbf{r}=R~\mathbf{\hat i}+(h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2)~\mathbf{\hat k}.$$For the two-component system puck + putty: [B]Question 1[/B]: What are the three components of the torque due to gravity relative to the center of the puck? [B]Question 2[/B]: What are the three components of the angular momentum relative to the center of the puck? [/QUOTE]
