Question: Particles A ( mA = 1 0 . 6 kg ) and B ( mB = 1 1 . 2 kg ) , initially at

Particles A (mA=10.6 kg) and B (mB=11.2 kg), initially at rest, are fixed to a rigid massless rod pin-connected to fixed point O (OB=1m,AB=0.6m). Neglect the sizes of the particles.
If particle C (mC=1.5 kg) has rightward velocity vC=21 m/s just before impact with A and sticks to A after impact, find the maximum angle to which the system rotates before temporarily achieving rest.
