A bullet of mass and speed is fired into a door and gets embedded exactly at the centre of the door. The door is wide and weighs . 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 embeds into it. (Hint: The moment of inertia of the door about the vertical axis at one end is )
