How does a spinning disk respond to an impulse?

The figure shows a disk spinning with an angular velocity $\omega_z$. The disk is suspended from a long string.

I would like to know the following:

  • How does the disk respond to an impulse $J$?
  • What are the differential equations that describe this response?
