Question:

A uniform rod (length = 2.0 m) is mounted to rotate freely about a horizontal axis that is perpendicular to the rod and that passes through the rod at a point 0.50 m from one end of the rod. If the rod is released from rest in a horizontal position, what is the angular speed of the rod as it rotates through its lowest position?
