Hi there!!

▶A bullet of mass 10 g and speed 500m/s is fired into a door and gets embedded exactly at the centre of the door. The door is 1m wide and weighs 12 kg. It is hinged at one end and rotates about a vertical axis practically without friction. Find the angular speed of the door just after the bullet embedds into it.
#Hint!
➡ The moment of inertia of the door about vertical axis at one end is 
Figure it out!

Hey mate....
here's the answer....
Mass of bullet,
m = 10 g = 10 × 10–3 kg
Velocity of bullet,
v = 500 m/s
Thickness of door,
L = 1 m
Radius of door,
r = m / 2
Mass of door,
M = 12 kg
Angular momentum of bullet on the door:
α = mvr
= (10 × 10-3 ) × (500) × (1/2) = 2.5 kg m2 s-1 ...1
Moment of inertia of door:
I = ML2 / 3
= (1/3) × 12 × 12 = 4 kgm2
But α = Iω
∴ ω = α / I
= 2.5 / 4
= 0.625 rad s-1
Hope this helps❤
