A uniform rod of mass M = 5m and length L is hung vertically at rest from a pivot. A snowball flies horizontally at initial speed u and hits the bottom end of the rod. After collision, the snowball sticks to the rod. If L = 1.00 m, what is the minimum velocity u such that the rod swings until it reaches an angle perpendicular to the vertical? M M = 5m L น
