→A solid cube of wood of side $2 a$ and mass $M$ is resting on a horizontal surface as shown below. The cube is free to rotate about the fixed axis $A B$. A bullet of mass $m ( < M)$ and speed $v$ is shot horizontally at the face opposite to $A B C D$ at a height $h$ above the surface to impart the cube an angular speed $\omega_{c}$, so that the cube just topples over. Then, $\omega_{c}$ is (Note the moment of inertia of the cube about an axis perpendicular to the face and passing through the centre of mass is $2 M a^{3} / 3$ )
