Detailed Solution
I L lmoment of inertia of rod is, I=M2L212, here M is mass of rod,2L is length of rodmoment of inertia of rod with masses m attached is, I1=I+2mL22---(1) now, I=ML23---(2) on substituting equation 2 in 1, I1 =L2M3+m2 I1=L22M+3m6frequency of torsional oscillations is f=12πKI---(3) ⇒ f1=12πkI1---(4) So by question,f−f1f=1−f1f=20100=15 on substituting equations 3 and 41−f1f=1−II1 ⇒15=1−II1 ⇒1−15=II1 ⇒452=II1 substitute the values of I,I1 ⇒ML23L22M+3m6=16252M2M+3m=162525M=16M+24m9M=24m∴ mM=38=0.37
