How fast does the center of mass of the system move

Reference no: EM13332654

A 226 kg beam 2.0 m in length slides broadside down the ice with a speed of 30 m/s (see figure). A 50 kg man at rest grabs one end as it goes past and hangs on as both he and the beam go spining down the ice. Assume frictionless motion.

(a) How fast does the center of mass of the system move after the collision?

m/s

(b) With what angular velocity does the system rotate about its CM?

rad/s
