pendulum of mass m= 0.8 kg and length l=1 m is hanging from the ceiling. The massless string of the pendulum is attached at point P. The bob of the pendulum is a uniform shell (very thin hollow sphere) of radius r=0.4 m, and the length l of the pendulum is measured from the center of the bob. A spring with spring constant k= 7 N/m is attached to the bob (center). The spring is relaxed when the bob is...

A uniform rod of mass M and length L is pivoted at one end. The rod is left to freely rotate under the influence of its own weight. Find its angular acceleration α when it makes an angle 30° with the vertical axis. Solve for M=1 Kg, L=1 m, take g=10 m s-2. Hint: Find the center of mass for the rod, and calculate the torque, then apply Newton as τ= Ι·α
