A rectangular solid box of length 0.3 m is held horizontally, with one of its sides on the edge of a platform of height 5 m. When released. it slips off the table in a very short time $T = 0.01 s$ , remaining essentially horizontal. The angle by which it would rotate when it hits the ground will be (in radians) close to

Detailed Solution

Angle impulse is equal to an angular momentum change.

$τΔt = ΔL$

$mg \frac{l}{2} \times 0.01 = \frac{{ml}^{2}}{3} ω$

$ω = \frac{3 g \times 0.01}{2 l} = \frac{3 \times 10 \times . 01}{2 \times 0.3} = 0.5 rad / s$

the time duration it took the rod to land

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2 h}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 5}{10}} = 1 \sec$

Angle is now rotated by a rod.

$θ = ωt = 0.05 \times 1 = 0.5 radian$

Hence the correct answer is 0.5.
