A dumbbell, consisting of two massive small spheres and a light rigid rod of length L, rests on a smooth horizontal surface. A third identical sphere collides with one of its spheres. The velocity of the incoming sphere is directed at an angle of to the rod. A head-on perfectly elastic collision occurs. Find the angular velocity of the dumbbell after the impact.
