A uniform rod of mass m and length l which can rotate freely in vertical plane without friction, is hinged at its lower end on a table. If a sphere of mass m and radius is placed in contact with the vertical rod and a horizontal force F = 80 N is applied at the upper end of the rod. Find the horizontal component of hinge reaction (in N) acting on the rod just after force F starts acting.
Torque equation for rod about O,
…(i)
The motion of the sphere is translational only acceleration of the sphere (a) = acceleration of point P
…(ii)
From (i) and (ii) …(iii)
For sphere, …(iv)
Solving (iii) and (iv) we get,
Acceleration of the COM of the rod is
Let horizontal component of hinge reaction is . Force equation for rod,
