$A$ uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied at one end of the rod at an angle $\theta$ with the rod. The acceleration of the centre of mass of the rod is:

  • A
    $F/M$
  • B
    $F \sin \theta / M$
  • C
    $F \cos \theta / M$
  • D
    $F \tan \theta / M$
