Question:
A uniform slender rod AB of mass m and length L strikes a rigid frictionless support at point C with an angular velocity of magnitude ω1 when the velocity of its mass center G is zero. Knowing that the angular velocity of the rod immediately after the impact is ω1/2, counterclockwise, and assuming perfectly elastic impact, determine
(a) The ratio h/L,
(b) The velocity of the mass center of the rod immediately after the impact,
(c) The impulse exerted on the rod at point C.
