A thin uniform metal rod of mass 'm' and length ‘l’ standing vertically is now allowed to fall due to its own weight. The velocity with which its mid-point will strike ground will be : (1) √5/2 gl(2) √5 gl(3) √3 gl(4) √3/4 gl |

Answer» Explain: Loss of gravitational = P.E mg l/2 Gain in rotational = KE = 1/2 lW2 Now l = 1/3 ml2 So, mg 1/2 = 1/2 x 1/2 ml2 x W2 ⇒ w = √3g/l So, the velocity of mid point ⇒v = w l/2 =√3g/l. l/2 = √3gl/4. |
