A turntable has a radius of 0.80 m and a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg • m².The turntable is rotating with an angular velocity of 1.5 rad/s about a vertical axis though its center on frictionless bearings.A very small 0.40-kg ball is projected horizontally toward the turntable axis with a velocity of 3.0 m/s.The ball is caught by a very small and very light cup-shaped mechanism on the rim of the turntable (see figure).What is the angular velocity of the turntable just after the ball is caught? A) 2.1 rad/s B) 1.3 rad/s C) 0.94 rad/s D) 0.75 rad/s E) 0.30 rad/s
