Last updated: 6/4/2023

A rod of mass M is hinged at A on a smooth horizontal surface and can rotate about A without friction A particle of mass m moving on the horizontal plane strikes to rod and comes at rest just after collision A Impulsive hinge reaction at A may be in forward direction during collision O B Impulsive hinge reaction at A may be in backward direction during collision C Hinge reaction can not be zero during collision D Angular momentum about A will remain conserved X
