Are 1 rad/s and 2 m your answers?
(a) I suggest you apply conservation of energy. The total kinetic energy is the sum of (1/2) M V^2 and (1/2) I w^2. where w = V/R.
w is the angular speed.
M g *L sin 30 = (1/2) M V^2 and (1/2) I w^2
= (1/2) M (Rw)^2 and (1/2)(1/2)MR^2) w^2
Solve for w. M cancels out
(b) Multiply the horizontal component of the velocity at the end of the roof by the time it takes to fall a distance H. Note that is leaves the roof with a downward velocity component.
