$A$ rod $PQ$ of mass $M$ and length $L$ is hinged at end $P$. The rod is kept horizontal by a massless string tied to point $Q$ as shown in the figure. When the string is cut,the initial angular acceleration of the rod is

  • A
    $\frac{2g}{3L}$
  • B
    $\frac{3g}{2L}$
  • C
    $g/L$
  • D
    $2g/L$
