Figures 1 and 2 below show a meter stick, haif of which is wood and half of which is steel. (Steel is denser than wood). In figure 1, the stick is pivoted at the wooden end, at O, and a force F is applied to the steel end. In figure 2, the stick is pivoted at the steel end at O, and an identical force is applied to the wooden end. `["Neglect Gravity"]`.

Options

A. The angular acceleration will be greater for the stick in figure. 1. because the torque about Q is greater than the torque about O'
B. The angular acceleration will be greater for the stick in figure 2, because the torque about O' is greater than the torque about O.
C. The angular acceleration will be greater for the stick in figure 1 because the rotational inertia about O is smaller than the rotational inertia about O'
D. The angular acceleration will be greater for the stick in figure 2 because the rotaional ineria about O' is smaller man the rotational ineria about O.

Answer

`B, D`
