प्रश्न
Two small balls A and B, each of mass m, are joined rigidly to the ends of a light rod of length L (see the following figure). The system translates on a frictionless horizontal surface with a velocity \[\nu_0\] in a direction perpendicular to the rod. A particle P of mass m kept at rest on the surface sticks to the ball A as the ball collides with it. Find
(a) the linear speeds of the balls A and B after the collision, (b) the velocity of the centre of mass C of the system A + B + P and (c) the angular speed of the system about C after the collision.
[Hint : The light rod will exert a force on the ball B
only along its length.]
उत्तर
(a) Collision will not affect the velocity of ball B because the light rod will exert a force on it only along its length.
Therefore, we have
Velocity of B = v0
For ball A,
On applying the law of conservation of linear momentum, we get
\[m \nu_0 = 2m \times \nu\]
\[\Rightarrow v = \frac{v_0}{2}\]
\[\therefore\] Velocity of A \[= \frac{\nu_0}{2}\]
(b) If we consider the three bodies to be a system, we have
Net external force = 0
\[v_{CM} = \frac{m \times v_0 + 2m \times \left( v_0 /2 \right)}{n + 2m}\]
\[ = \frac{m v_0 + m v_0}{3m}\]
\[ = \frac{2 v_0}{3}\]
(Direction will be same as the initial velocity before collision.)
(c) Velocity of (A + P) w.r.t. the centre of mass \[= \left\{ \frac{2 v_0}{3} - \frac{v_0}{2} \right\} = \frac{v_0}{6}\]
Velocity of B w.r.t. the centre of mass \[= v_0 - \frac{2 v_0}{3} = \frac{v_0}{3}\]
Distance of the (A + P) from the centre of mass \[= \frac{l}{3}\]
Distance of the B from the centre of mass = \[\frac{2l}{3}\]
Applying \[m v_{com} r = l_{cm} \times \omega, \] we have
\[\left( 2m \times \frac{v_o}{6} \times \frac{l}{3} \right) + \left( m \times \frac{v_0}{3} \times \frac{2l}{3} \right) = \left\{ 2m \left( \frac{l}{3} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{2l}{3} \right)^2 m \right\} \times \omega\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{6m v_0 l}{18} = \frac{6ml}{9}\omega\]
\[ \Rightarrow \omega = \frac{v_0}{2l}\]
