1. 
Given Side of block  a=30 cm=0.3 m
Velocity  v=2 m/s
Before hitting point O ,We know angular momentum L=mvr=mva2
Also, after hitting point O, L=Iω
2. Using conservation of angular momentum,  mva2=Iω
3. Moment of inertia (I) of cubical block about one edge is given by
I=ma26+a22 
ω=m.2a2ma26+a22 
ω=128a=32×0.3=102=5 rad/sec 
Therefore, the correct answer is (B).
