We have a metal rod of length L. The rod is on the x-axis extending from 0 to L. We select a point X on the rod randomly and uniformly and cut the rod at X. This gives two smaller rods of lengths X and L − X. We select the longer piece (if the two pieces are of equal length we select one of them) and cut it again randomly and uniformly to get three pieces. What is the...

A 5.0 kg rod with a length of 2.8 m has an axis of rotation at its center. Looking at the rod with its axis perpendicular to this page, a force of 14.5 N at 68o is applied to the rod 1.1 m from the axis of rotation. This torque would angularly accelerate the rod in a counter-clockwise direction. Assume that the torque continues to be applied during the motion consider in this problem and that there are no other...
