    A rigid mass less rod of length L is rotating in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis passing through one of its ends. At the other end of the rod there is a mass less metal plate welded to the rod. This plate supports a heavy small bead that can slide on the rod without friction. Just above the bead there is another identical metal plate welded to the rod. The bead remains confined between the plates. The gap between the plates is negligible compared to L. The angular speed of the rod when the bead is at lowest position of the circle is omega=2sqrt(g/L) . How many times a clink of the bead hitting a metal plate is heard during one full rotation of the rod ?

    In the figure shown one end of a light spring of natural length l_(0)=sqrt(5/8)m(~~0.8m) is fixed at point D and other end is attached to the centre B of a uniform rod AF of length l_(0)//sqrt(3) and mass 10kg. The rod is free to rotate in a vertical plane about a fixed horizontal axis passing through the end A of the rod. The rod is held at rest in horizontal position and the spring is in relaxed state. It is found that, when the rod is released to move it makes an angle of 60^(@) with the horizontal when it comes to rest for the first time. Find the (a) the maximum elogation in the spring .
