A ruler stands vertically against a wall. It is given a tiny impulse at θ=0∘ such that it starts falling down under the influence of gravity. You can consider that the initial angular velocity is very small so that ω(θ=0∘)=0. The ruler has mass m= 100 g and length l= 15 cm. Use g=10 m/s2 for the gravitational acceleration, and the ruler has a uniform mass distribution. Note that there is no friction whatsoever in this problem.
The angle is from the vertical.
(a) What is the angular speed of the ruler ω when it is at an angle θ=30∘? (in radians/sec)

m = 0.1 Kg
L = .15 m
moment of inertia of ruler about center = (1/12) m L^2 = 1.88*10^-4 Kg m^2
------------------------------
Method 1
decrease in potential energy = increase in kinetic energy
Height of cg = .075 cos T
height of cg at start = .075 meters
height of cg at 30 deg =.075 cos 30 =.065 meters
loss of PE = m g (.065)
= .1 * 9.81 * .065 = .0638 Joules
x = distance out from wall of cg
y = height of cg
x = .05 sin T
y = .075 cos T
dx/dt = hor velocity = .075 cos T dT/dt
dy/dt = ver velocity =-.075 sin T dT/dt
angular velocity = dT/dt
so at T =30 deg
dx/dt = .065 dT/dt
dy/dt = .0375 dT/dt
total liner velocity = sqrt(dx/dt^2+dy/dt^2)
= dT/dt(.075)
Linear Ke = (1/2) mv^2 = .05(.00563) (dT/dt)^2
= 2.82*10^-4 (dT/dt)^2
Rotational Ke = (1/2) I (dT/dt)^2
= .94 *10^-4 (dT/dt)^2
Total Ke = 3.76*10^-4 (dT/dt)^2 Joules
so
.0638 Joules = 3.76*10^-4 (dT/dt)^2
so
dT/dt = 13 radians/second
Check arithmetic
Harder way
---------------------------
Force up from floor = Fz
Force down from gravity = m g = .1*9.81 = .981 Newtons
so
.981 - Fz = .1 az
where az is acceleration of CG down
Force horizontal out from wall = Fx
acceleration of cg out from wall = ah
so
Fx = .1 ah
Torques about cg = I alpha
Fz(.075)sin T -Fx(.075)cos T = 1.88*10^-4 alpha
Now geometry, relate angular acceleration to linear acceleration components at cg
x = .075 sin T
dx/dt = .075 cos T (dT/dt)
ax = d^2x/dt^2 =-.075 sin T (dT/dt)^2 + .075 cos T alpha
{{note - because alpha = ang accel = d^2T/dt^2}}
y = .075 cos T
dy/dt = -.075 sin T dT/dt
az = d^2y/dt^2 = -.075 cosT (dT/dt)^2 -.075 sin T alpha
Now solve for dT/dt :)
L = .15 m
moment of inertia of ruler about center = (1/12) m L^2 = 1.88*10^-4 Kg m^2

Method 1

dy/dt = .0375 dT/dt

Fz(.075)sin T -Fx(.075)cos T = 1.88*10^-4 alpha
Now geometry, relate angular acceleration to linear acceleration components at cg

y = .075 cos T
dy/dt = -.075 sin T dT/dt

Now solve for dT/dt :)

loss of PE = m g (.065)
= .1 * 9.81 * (.075-.065) = .00981 Joules
then go way down to use that
.00981 Joules = 3.76*10^-4 (dT/dt)^2
so
dT/dt = 5.1 radians/second
= .1 * 9.81 * (.075-.065) = .00981 Joules
then go way down to use that
.00981 Joules = 3.76*10^-4 (dT/dt)^2
so
dT/dt = 5.1 radians/second

for linear Ke we need (1/2) m v^2
but v = vx i + vy j
so magnitude of v is sqrt (vx^2+vy^2)

Fx=
Fy=
(c) At what angle θ0 will the falling ruler lose contact with the wall? (0≤θ0≤90∘; in degrees) [hint: the ruler loses contact with the wall when the force exerted by the wall on the ruler vanishes.]

apply conservation of energy:

EK= 1/2*I*w^2, I=1/3*m*L^2
Eini= mg(L/2) + 0
Efin= mg(L/2)cos30 + 1/2*I*w^2
solve for Eini=Efin -> w=

I don't want you to cheat so I am giving some hints - not full solution. As for part b - Damon gave you everything in his geometrical approach. Look at the equations for forces - you need x and y (Damon calls it x and z) component of acceleration a of the center of mass. You have the equations for them given by Damon in his geometrical appoach. In these equations you have the angle - you know it, then you have the angular velocity - you just calculated it, at last you have there angular acceleratin - get that either from the torque equation (taking pivot point as origin gets rid of the contact force). Then you can solve. Or if you have a nice equation for omega from part a), take a derivative to get the acceleration.
As for part c): F_x=0 therefore a_x=0 - play with the equations for a_x and a_y and omega from part a).
Sorry for my grammar :-).

the equation is Ok, and the w value got green checked. So YES, I'm sure about A.
But anyone knows how to do B and C. And please, try to post the procedure, because we all have different data.

@Phy,
a) Integrate beta*t^2 from 0 to 5... as it is the only force, you shall get someting like: p_f = beta/3 * t_f^3...
b) Its more complicated, need some click on your mind. The block will only start to move when F > Ff... So it won't start to move until beta*t^2 is more then m*g*mu. So you get this: F-Fk = 0, beta*t^2 - m*g*mu=0, t = sqrt(m*g*mu/beta), this will tell you, at what time F its about to surpass Fk, then you need to integrate F=beta*t^2 from that time to 5. In the end, divide it to the mass. And keep this integration fro c).
c) Power = Force * v_f. Force is beta*t_f^2 (you'll only equate for F, not for Ff) and v_f you'll find using the eq above, but from that time to t_f = 4 seconds.
Hope it helps.

After finding f_x, use that value in the equation Torque=I_cm *alpha equation (containing F_y and F_x), i think you don't need to find a_y.
Also check ur equation for a_y, both are Cos(theta),i think the second one will be sin (theta)

i tought that if there is no friction the F_y component would be zero, but it's wrong.
Also for the angle I just set the a_x equation equals to zero and find the arctg between two parameters already found on the exercise. I get 61.81° and its also wrong.

Hello guys,
After some massage got an function for f_y, using f_x:
f_y = (2 * I_cm * alpha)/(l*sin(theta)) + f_x * cotangent(theta)
For I_cm used 1/12 * m * l^2, so made it throught the center of mass...
For m=150g and l=20cm I've got 0.958, and an green mark, use those values up here, and check it with care, please don't wast your change by misscalculations. Good luck. (:
