A meter stick (L = 1 meter) has a mass of m = 0.154 kilogram. Initially it hangs from two short strings: one at the 25 centimeter mark and one at the 75 centimeter mark.

1) Evaluate what is the tension in the left string?

2) Now the right string is cut! Obtain the initial angular acceleration of the meter stick about its pivot point? (You may assume the rod pivots about the left string, and the string remains vertical)

3) Find the tension in the left string right after the right string is cut?

4) After the right string is cut, the meter stick swings down to where it is vertical for an instant before it swings back up in the other direction. Find the angular speed when the meter stick is vertical?

5) Find the acceleration of the center of mass of the meter stick when it is vertical?

6) Obtain the tension in the string when the meter stick is vertical?
