- $ \frac{2g}{3L}$
- $ \frac{3g}{2L}$
\(\frac gL\)
\(\frac {2g} {L}\)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
\(\tau = I \alpha \)
\(\Rightarrow mg \left( \frac{L}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{ml^2}{3} \right) \alpha\)
\(\Rightarrow \alpha = \frac{3g}{2L}\)
So, the correct option is (B): \(\frac{3g}{2L}\)

System of Particles and Rotational Motion
- The system of particles refers to the extended body which is considered a rigid body most of the time for simple or easy understanding. A rigid body is a body with a perfectly definite and unchangeable shape.
- The distance between the pair of particles in such a body does not replace or alter. Rotational motion can be described as the motion of a rigid body originates in such a manner that all of its particles move in a circle about an axis with a common angular velocity.
- The few common examples of rotational motion are the motion of the blade of a windmill and periodic motion.
