Meriam, Kraige & Bolton — Plane Kinetics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 6_167

6/167 The mass \( m \) is traveling with speed \( v \) when it strikes the corner of the plate of mass \( M \). If the mass sticks to the plate, determine the maximum angle \( \theta \) reached by the plate. Use the values \( m = 500\text{ g} \), \( M = 20\text{ kg} \), \( v = 30\text{ m/s} \), \( b = 400\text{ mm} \), and \( h = 800\text{ mm} \).
