A uniform rod of mass m and length L is ...

A uniform rod of mass `m` and length L is fixed to an axis, making an angle `theta` with it as shown in the figure. The rod is rotated about this axis so that the free end of the rod moves with a uniform speed ‘v’. Find the angular momentum of the rod about the axis. Is the angular momentum of the rod about point A constant?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
