1. Two point particles are attached to a horizontal rod, which is free to rotate in a vertical plan. The axis of rotation passes through the center of the rod and is perpendicular to the line joining the point masses. d = 3m m = 2kg a. Find the moment of inertia of this configuration. [6.75 kg-m²] b. Find the angular acceleration of this object about the axis at the location indicated by X, and identify whether the rod rotates clockwise or counterclockwise. [2.22 rad/s², clockwise] c. Find the tangential acceleration of each point particle.
