Question

A rod of mass m and length L is hinged with a frictionless hinge at one end. The moment of inertia about the center of mass is 1/12 mL2 Attached to the end of the rod opposite to the hinge there is a mass of magnitude 2m. The rod is released from rest in the horizontal position. What is the speed v2 of the mass 2m when the rod passes through the vertical po- sition? Consider the mass at the end of the rod to be a point particle.

Explanation / Answer

              Given that the mass of the rod is m              Length of the rod is L              mass of the attached body is 2m --------------------------------------------------------------------           Thecenter of mass of the rod and mass is  = m(L/2) / (m+3m) = L/6 from the mass2m         Applyconservation of energy at the horizontal and verticlepotion                        3m *g*h = (1/2)I2 +3mg(L/6)                        3m*g*L = (1/2)[ (1/12)mL2 + 2m*L2 ]2 + 3mg(L/6)                        3m*g*L = (1/2)[ (1/12)mL2 + 2m*L2 ]2 + 3mg(L/6)                        3m*g*L = (1/2)[ (25/12)mL2 ]2   + 3mg(L/6)                                2 =  (15/6)mgL /[ (25/24)mL2 ]                                          =  12g/ 5L                                   = (  12g /5L)1/2                                                                                                                       The speed of the mass 2mis v = L*                                                      =( 12gL /5)1/2
