Rotational MotionHard

Question

A nuniform bar of length 6a and mass 8 m lies on a smooth horizontal table. Two points masses m and 2m moving in the same horizontal plane with speed 2v and v respectively, strike the bar [as shoen in the figure] and stick to the bar after collision. Denoting angular velocity (about the centre of the mass), total energy and centre of mass velocity by ω, E and vc respectively, we have after collision.
       

Options

A.ω =
B.Vc = 0
C.ω =
D.E = mv2

Solution

Pi = 0     ∴ Pf = 0 or vc = 0
   Li = f or (2mv)a + (2mv)(2a) = Iω      .....(i)
Here, I = + m(2a)2 + (2m)(a2) = 30ma2
Substituting in eq. (i), we get
ω =
Further, E = 2 = × (30 ma2)
∴ Correct option are (a), (c) and (d).
