Question
A metre stick is held vertically with one end on a rough horizontal floor. It is gently allowed to fall on the floor. Assuming that the end at the floor does not slip, find the angular speed of the rod when it hits the floor
Options:
A .  4.32 rad/s
B .  5.42 rad/s
C .  6.35 rad/s
D .  Insufficient data
Answer: Option C
:
C
Let the mass of the rod = m
Let the mass of the rod = m
Therefore applying the law of conservation of energy
12lω2=mgl2
12×Ml23×ω2=mg12
ω2=3g/l
