In the diagram shown, a rod of mass M has been fixed on a ring of the same mass. The whole system has been placed on a perfectly rough surface. The system is gently displaced so that the ring starts rolling. The velocity of the centre of the ring when the rod becomes horizontal is (the length of the rod is equal to the radius of the ring)
