Question

State the characteristics of circular motion.

✓

Answer

1. It is an accelerated motion: As the direction of velocity changes at every instant, it is an accelerated motion.
2. It is a periodic motion : During the motion, the particle repeats its path along the same trajectory. Thus, the motion is periodic.

Two identical metal beads, each of mass $M$ but negligible width, can slide along a thin smooth uniform horizontal rod of mass $M$ and length $L$.

Find the angular speed of the system when the beads have moved up to the ends of the rod. (Assume that no external torque acts on the system.)
