A rod of mass M and length L can rotate about a hinge at its left end and is initially at rest. A putty ball of mass m, moving w

ith speed V, strikes the rod at angle θ from the normal and sticks to the rod after the collision. What is the angular speed ωf of the system immediately after the collision, in terms of system parameters and I?

Answer:

w_f =  m*V*cos(Q_n) / L*(m+M)

Explanation:

Given:

- mass of the putty ball m

- mass of the rod M

- Velocity of the ball V

- Length of the rod L

- Angle the ball makes before colliding with rod  Q_n

Find:

What is the angular speed ωf of the system immediately after the collision,

Solution:

- We can either use conservation of angular momentum or conservation of Energy. We will use Conservation of angular momentum of a system:

                                         L_before = L_after

- Initially the rod is at rest, and ball is moving with the velocity V at angle Q from normal to the rod. We know that the component normal to the rod causes angular momentum. Hence,

                                         L_before = L_ball = m*L*V*cos(Q_n)

- After colliding the ball sicks to the rod and both move together with angular speed w_f

                                         L_after = (m+M)*L*v_f

Where, v_f = L*w_f

                                         L_after = (m+M)*L^2 * w_f

- Now equate the two expression as per conservation of angular momentum:

                                       m*L*V*cos(Q_n) = (m+M)*L^2 * w_f

                                       w_f =  m*V*cos(Q_n) / L*(m+M)

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

\theta_{max} =18.38^o

b

New  n_{cladding} =1.491

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

          The refractive index of the core is  n_{core} = 1.497

         The refractive index of the cladding  is   n_{cladding} = 1.421

Generally according to Snell's law

      n_{core} * sin(90- \theta) = n_{cladding} * sin (90)

Where \theta_{max} is the largest angle a largest angle a ray will make with respect to the interface of the fiber and experience total internal reflection

      \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{n_{cladding}}{n_{core}} ]

       \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{1.421}{1.497}} ]

      \theta_{max} =18.38^o

Given from the question the the largest angle is  5°

Generally the refraction index of the cladding is mathematically represented as

           n_{cladding} = n_{core} * sin (90 - 5)

          n_{cladding} =1.491
