A side view diagram showing a uniform rod of length L pivoted at its right end. The rod is initially horizontal. A dashed arc indicates its path as it swings downward to a vertical position. At the bottom of the arc, small circular ball of mass m sitting on a horizontal line representing a frictionless surface. To the right of the ball, the horizontal surface transitions into a curved ramp that rises upward. A uniform rod of mass M and length L is pivoted at one end and held in a horizontal position, as shown in the figure. The rod is released from rest and swings downward. At the lowest point of its swing the tip of the rod strikes a small ball of mass m that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. Immediately after the collision the rod comes to a complete stop and the ball moves to the right, eventually sliding up a frictionless ramp
A uniform rod pivoted at one end swinging to strike a stationary ball.
A uniform rod of mass \(M\) and length \(L\) is pivoted at one end and held in a horizontal position, as shown in the figure. The rod is released from rest and swings downward. At the lowest point of its swing, the tip of the rod strikes a small ball of mass \(m\) that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. Immediately after the collision, the rod comes to a complete stop and the ball moves to the right, eventually sliding up a frictionless ramp. In terms of the given quantities and fundamental constants, what is the maximum vertical height \(H\) reached by the ball on the ramp?
