A potter's wheel with a moment of inertia 37.0 [kgm2] is spinning freely at 46.0 [rpm]. The potter drops a lump of clay onto the wheel, where it sticks a distance 1.70 [m] from the rotational axis. If the subsequent angular speed of the wheel and clay is 32.0 rpm, what is the mass of the clay? 

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

To solve this problem we can use the principle of conservation of angular momentum Initially the pot... View the full answer
