Point masses m and m are placed at the opposite ends of a rigid rod of length L and negligible mass The rod is to be set rotating about an axis perpendicular to it The position of point P on this rod through which the axis should pass so that the work required to set the rod rotating with angular velocity wo is minimum is given by m1 X P L x m 2
