To determine the elongation of a uniform rod of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) when pulled horizontally with a force \( F \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have a uniform rod of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) being pulled horizontally on a smooth surface with a force \( F \). The rod is uniform, so its mass is evenly distributed along its length. ### Step 2: Calculate the Acceleration The acceleration \( a \) of the rod can be calculated using Newton's second law: \[ ...
