The radial acceleration at a generic point x along the bar is a(x) = ω2x, where ω= 100rad/s is the angular velocity. The bar is pinned on the rotation axis at x = 0. A mass M = 1kg is attached to the right end of the bar. Due to the radial acceleration, the bar stretches along x with displacement function u(x).
