Athin, uniform rod is hinged at its midpoint. to begin with, one-half of the rod is bent upward and is perpendicular to the other half. this bent object is rotating at an angular velocity of 9.7 rad/s about an axis that is perpendicular to the left end of the rod and parallel to the rod's upward half (see the drawing). without the aid of external torques, the rod suddenly assumes its straight shape. what is the angular velocity of the straight rod?

Aweather forecaster uses doppler radar to predict the track of a storm near the town of meadowlands. when the doppler signal is pointed at the storm from the town's center, the frequencies of the waves appear to be decreasing. what should the weather forecaster predict? a. that the storm will move around the edges of meadowlands without hitting the tosis center o b. that residents should be prepared, because it is impossible to know whether the storm will hit o c. that the storm is moving toward meadowlands and that residents should be prepared d. that the storm is moving away from meadowlands and is not likely to hit the town
