A massless rod of length l has weights, each of mass m, attached to its ends. The rod is initially put in a horizontal position, and laid on an off-center fulcrum located at a distance b from the rod’s center. The rod will topple.
a) Calculate the total gravitational torque on the rod directly, by adding the two torques.
b) Verify that this gives the same result as would have been obtained by taking the entire gravitational force as acting at the center of mass.

A uniformly dense solid rod with a length of 4 m and a mass of 5 kg is free to rotate around a frictionless axle located at one end of the rod. The rod is initially oriented horizontally (i.e., parallel to the ground). What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration (in rad/s2) of the rod resulting from the gravitational torque acting on the rod?

A bob of mass m is attached to a massless rigid rod of length L at an angle, theta, which is in turn attached to a firctionless hinge. A constant force, F = Fî acts on the bob. If the system begins at rest at theta = pi/5, find (a) its kinematic energy when it reaches theta = pi/30 and (b) its angular momentum when it reaches theta = 0.

A mass m has a massless hook of length 2L attached to it. The
end of this hook is a massless sticky scoop. This system of mass
and hook is initially at rest. Another mass m flies with speed v1
directly into this scoop, sticks, and the whole thing starts to
move and rotate. Find expressions for the linear and rotational
velocity of the combined object after the first mass is caught.
