Homework Statement


Thor starts spinning his hammer at a rate of 2.00 rad/s2 while he starts running toward Loki at 4.00m/s2 . The distance from Thor’s elbow to the end of the hammer form a rigid 1.20m segment. If he takes 3.00 seconds before he launches the hammer at Loki, what is the resultant velocity of the hammer when it leaves Thor’s hand?
