A uniform rod of length l and density ρ is revolving about a vertical axis passing through its one end. If  ω is the angular velocity of the rod then the centrifugal force per unit area of the rod is
  1. ρω2l24
  2. ρω2l212
  3. ρω2l22
  4. ρω2l28

Solution

Take an element of length dx and mass dm at a distance x from the rotating end.

Here mass of elemental part dm=ρdx

Centrifugal force on this small element dF=dm xω2

Total centrifugal force,

F=dF=0lρxω2dx

  F=ρω2l22
