Rod ACB of mass m_r supports the two disks each of mass md at its ends. If both disks are given a clockwise angular velocity ω_A1 = ω_Β1 = ω₀ while the rod is held stationary and then released, determine the angular velocity of the rod after both disks have stopped spinning relative to the rod due to frictional resistance at the pins A and B. Motion is in the horizontal plane. Neglect friction at pin C.
