1torque= m2gL/2cosθ+m1gLcosθ
moment of inertia abt O=m2L2/3+m1b2/2+m1L2
now angular acceleration=torque/I
A uniform rod length L and mass m2 is pivoted at one end, to its other end is fastened a uniform disk of mass m1 and radius b. Find the angular acceleration of the system just after it is released from the position shown.

there will be two torques
one due to m1 and other due to m2
hence the expression
and moment of inertia of rod=moment of inertia abt com+M(L/2)2
=ML2/12+ML2/4=ML2/3
and for the disc
moment of inertia = moment of inertia about of com of disc +M(L)2

39m2gl/2cosθ is the torque due to the weight of the rod.
m1glcosθ is the torque due to the mass m1.
m2l2/3 is the moment of inertia of the rod aout an axis passing through the end and perpendicular to it.
m1b2+m1l2 is moment of inertia at o due to the disc [from parallel axis theorem]
now angular acceleration= torque/I
1please explain how u hve calculated torque [ f.r where r =perpendicular dist. from the axis of rotation]
62yeah that is how shreya..
there are 2 parts of the problem..
one is the point mass..
the other is the rod...
U need to consider both of these!
If it is still nto clear do ask..
1please solve the whole problem i am not able to cal. the torque
how did u find r
62
Torque due to m1 will be : m1gLSinθ
due to m2 will be : m2gL/2 Sinθ
