A particle of mass 0.500 kg is attached to the 100-cm mark of a meterstick of mass 0.200 kg. The meterstick rotates on the surface of a frictionless, horizontal table with an angular speed of 6.00 rad/s.
(a) Calculate the angular momentum of the system when the stick is pivoted about an axis perpendicular to the table through the 50.0-cm mark.
_______ kg · m2/s
(b) Calculate the angular momentum of the system when the stick is pivoted about an axis perpendicular to the table through the 0-cm mark.
_______ kg · m2/s
