A meter stick is pivoted about its centre. A piece of wax of mass 20 g travelling horizontally and perpendicular to it at 5 m/s strikes and adheres to one end of the stick which starts to rotate in a horizontal circle. Given, the moment of inertia of the stick and wax about the pivot is 0.02 kg m2, the angular velocity of the stick is
