Obtain the angular velocity of the weather vane

Reference no: EM13497222

A weather vane initially at rest has a moment of inertia of 0.104 kg · m2 about its axis of rotation. A 47.5 g piece of clay is thrown at the vane and sticks to it at a point 17.0 cm from the axis. The initial velocity of the clay is 12.5 m/s, directed perpendicular to the vane. Find the angular velocity of the weather vane just after it is struck.
