By conservation of angular momentum, when radius shrinks to half angular velocity of sphere increases to 4 times.
Now the kinetic energy of sphere is lost in work done by friction of the liquid medium.
(B)
Axis of pure rotation will be on the normals to both the straight lines and the intersection of these two normals will
be the co-ordinate of axis of pure rotation. The equations of normals of the two given lines are 2y + 3x = 16
3y 4x = 1

If we write the equation of rotational motion of sphere about point P
then we have to apply pseudo force m2R on centre of mass because

this axis has an upward acceleration = 2R towards O.

So we use
I P = (mg + m2R)d.

As shown in figure we can use
v = R cos
cos = v/R

NOTE : In the problem it is not given that ball sticks to stick so if we solve the problem by taking coefficient of restitution zero
without considering ball sticks to stick then also we will get the same result because both the cases involve same
analysis.

We know that after some time pure rolling will start so vcm t graph is linear upto the time pure rolling starts and
afterwards vcm becomes constant as there no slipping and friction reduces to zero.

As there is no sliding, point of contact is at rest. It means point of contact does not move. Hence the work done by
static friction force is zero (static friction acts at the point of contact)

If P1 and P2 are the impulses by the hinge along x and y directions on rod as shown in figure we use Impulse
momentum equation and we can write P1 = P0 sin 9 kg - m/s
