Two lightweight rods 24 cm in length are mounted perpendicular to an axle and at 180 to each other. At the end of each rod is a 480-g mass. The rods are spaced 42 cm apart along the axle. The axle rotates at 4.2 rad/s. (Figure 1) Figure 480 g 24 cm 42 cm 24 cm 1 of 1 480 g Part A What is the component of the total angular momentum along the axle? Express your answer using two significant figures. VE Lalong axle = Submit Part B 0 = Request Answer What angle does the vector angular momentum make with the axle? [Hint: Remember that the vector angular momentum must be calculated about the same point for both masses, which could be the cm.] Express your answer using two significant figures.
