Question: [ 4 points ] Suppose that a uniform thin rod of length 0 . 8 2 m is pivoted on the floor on one end.

[4 points] Suppose that a uniform thin rod of length 0.82 m is pivoted on the floor on one end. Initially it is standing upright. When let go, the rod falls by rotating about the pivot. At some instant during the fall, the tangential acceleration of the free end is g(the acceleration of gravity). What is the angle of the rod measured from the floor at that instant?
A. At any angle as the tangential acceleration of the end is always g.
