Physical pendulum released from rest at angle \(\theta_0\).
A physical pendulum consists of a uniform thin rod of mass \(M\) and length \(L\) pivoted frictionlessly at one end. The rod is held at an angle \(\theta_0\) relative to the downward vertical and released from rest. What is the magnitude of the vertical force exerted by the pivot on the rod as the rod passes through the vertical equilibrium position?
