Q.

A light inextensible string lies with one end fixed, while the other is attached to one  end of a uniform rod of length  l  and mass m. The system is initially at rest with the rod  aligned along the x-axis and the string at an angle with the negative y-axis  θ .  (cosθ=13)
A bullet of mass m (same as that of the rod  is fired which hits the rod at its right end with  velocity  vo and gets lodged in it. Assume the string doesn’t break. The end of the  string  tied to the rod is point P.

An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

a

The velocity of P is perpendicular to the string right after the impact

b

the string becomes slack during the impact and speed of point P immediately after the impact is  2v05 m/s.

c

the string becomes taut during the impact and hence exerts an impulse

d

Angular momentum of system (Rod + bullet) is conserved only about P

answer is A, B.
