$A$ rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is placed in a horizontal plane with one end hinged about a vertical axis. $A$ horizontal force of $F = \frac{Mg}{2}$ is applied at a distance $\frac{5L}{6}$ from the hinged end. The angular acceleration of the rod will be:

  • A
    $\frac{4g}{5L}$
  • B
    $\frac{5g}{4L}$
  • C
    $\frac{3g}{4L}$
  • D
    $\frac{4g}{3L}$

$A$ thin uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is pivoted at a height $\frac{L}{3}$ from its lower end as shown in the figure. The rod is allowed to fall from a vertical position and lie horizontally on the table. The angular velocity of this rod when it hits the table top is . . . . . . . ($g$ = gravitational acceleration)

To maintain a rotor at a uniform angular speed of $100\, rad\, s^{-1}$,an engine needs to transmit a torque of $100\, Nm$. The power of the engine is
