Consider a rotating platform such as you used in lab. Imagine that it is initially rotating at some angular velocity.
You drop a disk, that is not rotating, onto the top of the rotating platform so that it sticks to the rotating platform and begins rotating along with the rotating platform. The center of the disk coincides with the rotation axis. Assume that the disk has a significant moment of inertia around the rotation axis of the platform, i.e. the z-axis.
For this rotational collision, which of the following should you observe for the total rotating system (platform + object)?
