A uniform straight rod is placed in vertical position on a smooth horizontal surface and released. As the rod is in motion, the centre of mass moves

A rod of length l is released from the vertical position on a smooth horizontal plane. What is the nature of motion of the free end of the rod ?

A uniform metallic rod lies on a smooth horizontal surface. C is centre of mass of rod and A is a point on the rod. As the temperature increase

A uniform thin rod of mass m and length l is standing on a smooth horizontal surface. A slight disturbance causes the lower end to slip on the smooth surface and the rod starts falling. Find the velocity of centre of mass of the rod at the instant when it makes an angle theta with horizontal.

A rod of mass m and length l is held vertically on a smooth horizontal floor. Now it is released from this position, find the speed of its centre of mass when it makes an angle theta with the vertical.

A uniform thin rod of mass m and length l is standing on a smooth horizontal suface. A slight disturbance causes the lower end to slip on the smooth surface and the rod starts falling. Find the velocity of centre of mass of the rod at the instant when it makes an angle theta with horizontal.

A uniform rod AB hinged about a fixed point P is initially vertical. A rod is released from vertical position. When rod is in horizontal position: The acceleration of the centre of mass of the rod is

A uniform rod of mass M and length L is standing vertically along the y -axis on a smooth horizontal surface as shown. A small disturbance causes the lower end to slip on the smooth horizontal surface and rod starts falling. The path followed by centre of mass of the rod during the fall is

A thin uniform rod of mass m and length l is kept on a smooth horizontal surface such that it can move freely. At what distance from centre of rod should a particle of mass m strike on the rod such that the point P at a distance l/3 from the end of the rod is instantaneously at rest just after the elastic collision?

A uniform rod ABC of mass M is placed vertically on a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the rod and the surface is mu . A force F (gt mu mg) is applied on the rod at point B at distance l//3 below centre of the rod as shown in figure. The initial acceleration of point A is
