Point masses m1 and m2 are placed at the...

Point masses `m_1` and `m_2` are placed at the opposite ends of a rigid rod of length L, and nelgligible mass. The rod is to be set rotating about an axis perpendicular to it. Find the position on this rod through which the axis should pass in order that the work required to set the rod rotating with angular velocity `omega_0` should be minimum.
