HARD

A rigid uniform rod of mass M and length L is resting on a smooth horizontal table. It is pivoted at its centre. Two marbles each of mass M6 moving with uniform speed L m s-1 in the plane of the table collide with the two ends of the rod simultaneously as shown in the figure. The marbles stuck to the rod and continue to move with the rod. Time taken by the rod to rotate through an angle π2 radian is (in seconds)

Consider a uniform rod of mass M=4m and length l pivoted about its centre. A mass m moving with velocity v making angle θ=π4 to the rod’s long axis collides with one end of the rod and sticks to it. The angular speed of the rod-mass system just after the collision is:

Two steel balls of equal diameter are connected by a rigid bar of negligible weight as shown and are dropped in the horizontal position from height h above the heavy steel and brass base plates. If the coefficient of restitution between the ball and steel base is 0.6 and that between the other ball and the brass base is 0.4.

A meter stick weighing 240 g is pivoted at its upper end in such a way that it can freely rotate in a vertical plane through this end (shown in the figure). A particle of mass 100 g is attached to the upper end of the stick through a light string of length 1 m. Initially, the rod is kept vertical and the string horizontal when the system is released from rest. The particle collides with the lower end of the stick and sticks there. Find the maximum angle through which the stick will rise.
