A uniform rod of length \(L\) is rotated in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis through one of its ends. The angular speed of rotation is \(\omega\). Find increase in length of the rod, if \(\rho\) and \(Y\) are the density and Young's modulus of the rod respectively,

  1. A \(\frac{\rho \omega^3 Y}{4 L^2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{4 \rho \omega^2 L^3}{3 Y}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\rho \omega^3 L^3}{3 Y}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\rho \omega^3 L^3}{8 Y}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{\rho \omega^3 L^3}{3 Y}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, length of uniform \(\operatorname{rod}=L\) angular speed \(=\omega\) and density of rod \(=\rho\) When rod is rotated in a horizontal plane, centrifugal force is responsible for increasing the length of rod, which is also equal to stress. If \(d l\) be the change in…
