Question
A uniform rod of mass m and length l is hinged at upper end. Rod is free to rotate in vertical plane. A ball of mass m moving horizontally with velocity v0 collides at lower end of rod perpendicular to it and sticks to it. The minimum velocity of the ball such that combined system just completes the vertical circle will beA uniform rod of mass m and length l is hinged at upper end.
