A uniform bar of length \(12\,\text{cm}\) and mass \(20m\) lies on a smooth horizontal table. Two point masses \(m\) and \(2m\) are moving in opposite directions with the same speed \(v\) and in the same plane as the bar, as shown in the figure. These masses strike the bar simultaneously and get stuck to it. After collision the entire system is rotating with angular frequency \(\omega\). The ratio of \(v\) and \(\omega\) is
