Question
A slender rod is 90.0 cm long and has mass 0.120 kg. A small 0.0200 kg sphere is welded to one end of the rod, and a small 0.0800 kg sphere is welded to the other end. The rod, pivoting about a stationary, frictionless axis at its center, is held horizontal and released from rest.

Answer:
Speed of 0.08 kg mass when it will reach to the bottom position is 1.94 m/s
Explanation:
When rod is released from rest then due to unbalanced torque about the hinge the system will rotate
Now moment of inertia of the system is given as
now we have
now we have
so we have
now by energy conservation we can say work done by gravity must be equal to change in kinetic energy
so we have
Now speed of 0.08 kg mass when it reaches to bottom point is given as
