Part A
A small 13.0g bug stands at one end of a thin
uniform bar that is initially at rest on a smooth
horizontal table. The other end of the bar pivots
about a nail driven into the table and can rotate
freely, without friction. The bar has mass 70.0g
and is 120cm in length. The bug jumps off in the
horizontal direction, perpendicular to the bar, with a
speed of 25.0cms relative to the table.
