A potter's wheel (I = 6.2 kg-m2) spins at 20 rad/sec. A 3.6 kg glob of clay is dropped vertically onto the top wheel and sticks, resulting in a new angular speed of 14.9 rad/sec.

How far is the clay from the center of the wheel?

A potter's wheel, with rotational inertia 46 kg∙m2, is spinning freely at 30 rpm. The potter drops a lump of clay onto the wheel, where it sticks a distance 5 m from the rotational axis. If the subsequent angular speed of the wheel and clay is 35 rpm what is the mass of the clay?

A potter's wheel (a solid, uniform disk) of mass 7.1 kg and radius 0.78 m spins about its central axis. A 0.51 kg lump of clay is dropped onto the wheel at a distance 0.65 m from the axis. Calculate the rotational inertia of the system (in kg*m^2).

A light-weight potter’s wheel, having a moment of inertia of 24 kg*m^2, is spinning freely at 40 rpm. The potter drops a small but dense lump of clay onto the wheel, where it sticks a distance 1.2m from the rotational axis. The subsequent angular speed of the wheel and clay is 32 rpm. The axis of the wheel is vertically directed, and the wheel is initially spinning in the counter-clockwise direction when looking down on the wheel from above. After...
