A rod with balls A and B of mass m each is clamped at the centre in such a way that it can rotate freely about a horizontal axis through the clamp. The system is kept at rest in the horizontal position. A particle P of the same mass m is dropped from a height h on ball B. The particle collides with B and sticks to it. Find the minimum value of h so that the system makes a complete rotation after the collision?Ans-h = 3L/2
