A uniform rod of length L (in between the supports) and mass m is placed on two supports A and B. The rod breaks suddenly at length L/10 from the support B. Find the reaction at support A immediately after the rod breaks.

a
940mg
b
1940mg
c
mg2
d
920mg

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Torque =τ=910mg920L=Iα=m3910L2αα=3g2L Acceleration, aCM=α(AC) aCM=3g2L9L20=27g40 Now,  910mg−NA=maCM=m⋅27g40 or  NA=940mg
