A massless rod of length L has a small mass m fastened at its center and another mass m fastened at one end. On the opposite end from the mass m, the rod is hinged with a frictionless hinge. The rod is released from rest from an initial horizontal position; then it swings down. What is the angular velocity as the rod swings through its lowest (vertical) position?

Aperson stands on a platform, initially at rest, that can rotate freely without friction. the moment of inertia of the person plus the platform is ip. the person holds a spinning bicycle wheel with its axis horizontal. the wheel has moment of inertia iw and angular velocity ωw. take the ωw direction counterclockwise when viewed from above. part a what will be the angular velocity ωp of the platform if the person moves the axis of the wheel so that it points vertically upward?
