Angular speed of the lazy susan


A Texas cockroach of mass 0.232 kg runs counterclockwise around the rim of a lazy Susan (a circular disk mounted on a vertical axle) that has a radius 10.7 cm, rotational inertia 4.37 x 10-3 kg·m2, and frictionless bearings. The cockroach's speed (relative to the ground) is 3.00 m/s, and the lazy Susan turns clockwise with angular velocity ω0 = 3.03 rad/s. The cockroach finds a bread crumb on the rim and, of course, stops. What is the angular speed of the lazy Susan after the cockroach stops?
