Rotation 4 Question 7

8. Two uniform rods A and B of length 0.6m each and of masses 0.01kg and 0.02kg, respectively are rigidly joined end to end. The combination is pivoted at the lighter end, P as shown in figure. Such that it can freely rotate about point P in a vertical plane.

A small object of mass 0.05kg, moving horizontally, hits the lower end of the combination and sticks to it. What should be the velocity of the object, so that the system

could just be raised to the horizontal position?

Answer:

Correct Answer: 8. 6.3m/s

Solution:

  1. System is free to rotate but not free to translate. During collision, net torque on the system ( rodA+rodB+massm) about point P is zero.

Therefore, angular momentum of system before collision

= angular momentum of system just after collision (about P ).

Let ω be the angular velocity of system just after collision, then

mv(2l)=Iω

Li=Lf

Here, I= moment of inertia of system about P

=m(2l)2+mA(l2/3)+mBl212+l2+l2

Given, l=0.6m,m=0.05kg,mA

=0.01kg and mB=0.02kg

Substituting the values, we get

Therefore, from Eq. (i)

ω=2mvlI=(2)(0.05)(v)(0.6)0.09ω=0.67v

Now, after collision, mechanical energy will be conserved. Therefore, decrease in rotational KE

= increase in gravitational PE or 12Iω2=mg(2l)+mAgl2+mBg(l+l2)

or ω2=gl(4m+mA+3mB)I

=(9.8)(0.6)(4×0.05+0.01+3×0.02)0.09=17.64(rad/s)2

ω=4.2rad/s

Equating Eqs. (ii) and (iii), we get

v=4.20.67m/s or v=6.3m/s
