$A$ thin and uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is held vertical on a floor with large friction. The rod is released from rest so that it falls by rotating about its contact-point with the floor without slipping. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are correct,when the rod makes an angle $60^{\circ}$ with vertical? [$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity]
$(1)$ The radial acceleration of the rod's center of mass will be $\frac{3g}{4}$
$(2)$ The angular acceleration of the rod will be $\frac{3\sqrt{3}g}{4L}$
$(3)$ The angular speed of the rod will be $\sqrt{\frac{3g}{2L}}$
$(4)$ The normal reaction force from the floor on the rod will be $\frac{Mg}{16}$

$A$ thin uniform bar lies on a frictionless horizontal surface and is free to move in any way on the surface. Its mass is $0.300 \, kg$ and length is $2 \, m$. Two particles,each of mass $0.100 \, kg$,are moving on the same surface towards the two ends of the bar in a direction perpendicular to the bar. One particle moves with a velocity of $10 \, m/s$ towards one end,and the other moves with a velocity of $5 \, m/s$ towards the other end. If the collision between the particles and the bar is completely elastic and both particles strike the bar simultaneously,find the velocity of the centre of mass of the bar after the collision in $m/s$.
