Q. A uniform solid sphere of mass $m$ , radius $R$ moving with velocity $v_{0}$ is rolling without slipping on a frictionless surface. It collides elastically with a frictionless vertical wall. Ratio of magnitude of angular momentum of the sphere before and after the collision about its bottommost point is

Solution:

$L_{i n}=mv_{0}R+\frac{2}{5}mR^{2}w$
$L_{i n}=\frac{7}{5}mv_{0}R$
$L_{f i n a l}=mv_{0}R-\frac{2}{5}mR^{2}\omega $
$=\frac{3}{5}mvR$
$Ratio=\frac{7}{3}$
