$A$ block of mass $m = 1 \, kg$ slides with velocity $v = 6 \, m/s$ on a frictionless horizontal surface and collides with a uniform vertical rod and sticks to it as shown. The rod is pivoted about $O$ and swings as a result of the collision,making an angle $\theta$ before momentarily coming to rest. If the rod has mass $M = 2 \, kg$ and length $l = 1 \, m$,the value of $\theta$ is approximately (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$) (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ uniform rod $AB$ of mass $m$ and length $l$ is at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. An impulse $J$ is applied to the end $B$,perpendicular to the rod in the horizontal direction. Find the speed of particle $P$ at a distance $\frac{l}{6}$ from the centre towards $A$ of the rod after time $t = \frac{\pi m l}{12 J}$.

Statement-$1$: $A$ body is rotating about an axis with angular velocity $\omega$ and moment of inertia $I$. Its angular momentum $L$ remains constant,but its rotational kinetic energy $K$ decreases,provided no external torque is applied.
Statement-$2$: $L = I\omega$ and $K = \frac{L^2}{2I} = \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2$.
