Two point masses of $0.3\, kg$ and $0.7\, kg$ are fixed at the ends of a rod of length $1.4\, m$ and of negligible mass. The rod is set rotating about an axis perpendicular to its length with a uniform angular speed. The point on the rod through which the axis should pass in order that the work required for rotation of the rod is minimum is located at a distance of

  • A
    $0.4\, m$ from mass of $0.3\, kg$
  • B
    $0.98\, m$ from mass of $0.3\, kg$
  • C
    $0.70\, m$ from mass of $0.7\, kg$
  • D
    $0.98\, m$ from mass of $0.7\, kg$
