A uniform rod of mass and length which is free to turn in a vertical plane about a smooth horizontal axis through is released from rest when horizontal. When the rod first becomes vertical a point of the rod, where strikes a fixed peg. The rod is brought to rest by the peg. The impulse exerted by the peg on the rod is (in SI unit). The value of is -
