A rod of negligible mass and length is pivoted at its centre. A particle of mass is fixed to its left end and another particle of mass is fixed to the right end. If the system is released from rest and after some time becomes vertical, the speed of the two masses and angular velocity at that instant:



Important Questions on Systems of Particles and Rotational Motion









[Take ]



Two particles of masses move with initial velocities and . On collision, one of the particles get excited to higher level, after absorbing energy If final velocities of particles be and then we must have:




A ball of mass moving with a velocity along the -axis, hits another ball of mass which is at rest. After the collision, first ball comes to rest while the second ball disintegrates into two equal pieces. One piece starts moving along -axis with a speed of The second piece starts moving at an angle of with respect to the -axis. The velocity of the ball moving at with -axis is The configuration of pieces after the collision is shown in the figure below. The value of to the nearest integer is
