Explanation
Two particles A and B, initially at rest, moves towards each other under a mutual force of attraction. At the instant when the speed of A is u and the speed of B is 2 u, the speed of centre of mass is
We have
torque =\tau=rF\sin { 90° } =\cfrac{ LF }{ 4 }
And perpendicular axis theorem gives us
I={ I }_{ 2 }={ I }_{ x }+{ I }_{ y }=\cfrac{ M{ L }^{ 2 } }{ 12 }
Angular acceleration,
\alpha =\cfrac{ \tau }{ I } =\cfrac{ LF }{ 4 } \times \left( \cfrac{ 12 }{ M{ L }^{ 2 } } \right) =\cfrac{ 3F }{ ML }
If \theta is the angle rotated in time t, and initial angular velocity { w }_{ 0 }being zero we have
\theta ={ w }_{ 0 }t+\cfrac{ 1 }{ 2 } \alpha { t }^{ 2 }=\cfrac{ 3F{ t }^{ 2 } }{ 2ML }
