**Educational Exercise: Reaction Forces in Uniform Slender Rod**

**Introduction:**

The uniform slender rod shown in the figure below has a mass of 4.5 kg.

**Figure Description:**

- The image illustrates a slender rod in a horizontal position with points O and A marked on it. 
- The rod is supported at point O and is 800 mm long, with a division showing 200 mm from O to the support and 600 mm from O to A.
- The rod can pivot about point O.

**Exercises:**

**Part A:**

- **Objective:** Determine the reaction at the pin O if the cord at point A is cut while the rod is still horizontal.
- **Instructions:** Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
- **Answer Box:** Provide your calculation in the designated input field.

**Part B:**

- **Objective:** Determine the reaction at pin O when the rod swings to the vertical position.
- **Instructions:** Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
- **Answer Box:** Provide your calculation in the designated input field.

**Note:** Ensure to review rotational dynamics and the principles of static equilibrium to solve these problems.
