A rod of length L is held vertically on ...

A rod of length `L` is held vertically on a smooth horizontal surface. The top end of the rod is given a gentle push. At at certain instant of time, when the rod makes an angle `37^@` with horizontal the velocity of `COM` of the rod of `2m//s`. The velocity of the end of the rod in contact with the surface at that instant is

A

`2ms^(-1)`

B

`1ms^(-1)`

C

`4ms^(-1)`

D

`1.5ms^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`C` is instantaneous centre of rotation
`omegaL/2costheta=v_(0)`

`omegaL/2sinthetaimpliesv=v_(0)tantheta`
