a thin rod of length l=2.5m and mass 3.5kg is suspended horizontally by a pair of vertical strings attached to the ends. what is the linear aceleration of end b of the rod just after the string is cut?
Added by A A.
Step 1
First, we need to find the tension in the strings before the string at end B is cut. To do this, we can consider the torque about end A (where the other string is attached). Show more…

A 0.25-kg rod of length 80 cm is suspended by a frictionless pivot at one end. It is held horizontal and released. Immediately after it is released, what is(a) The acceleration of the center of the rod, and(b) The initial acceleration of a point on the end of the rod?(c) Find the linear velocity of the center of mass of the rod when it is vertical.

A light rod of length / is pivoted at the upper end. A point mass m is attached at the free end of the rod. What horizontal velocity must be imparted to the lower end mass, so that tension in the rod is 2mg when it is at the topmost position?
