JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 6. system of particles and rotational motion

A thin rod \(MN\), free to rotate in the vertical plane about the fixed end \(N\), is held horizontal . When the end \(M\) is released the speed of this end, when the rod makes an angle \(\alpha \) with the horizontal, will be proportional to ( see figure)

  1. A \(\sqrt {\cos \alpha } \)
  2. B \(\cos \alpha \)
  3. C \(\sin \alpha \)
  4. D \(\sqrt {\sin \alpha } \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt {\cos \alpha } \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When the rod makes an angle \(\alpha \) Displacement of center of mass \( = \frac{1}{2}\cos \,\alpha \) \(mg\frac{1}{2}\cos \alpha = \frac{l}{2}I{\omega ^2}\,\) \(mg\frac{1}{2}\cos \alpha = \frac{{m{l^2}}}{6}{\omega ^2}\) (M.I. of thin uniform rod about an axis passing through…
