$A$ thin uniform rod of length $L$ and mass $m$ is kept on a frictionless horizontal table with a massless string of length $L$ fixed to one end (top view is shown in the figure). The other end of the string is pivoted to a point $O$. If a horizontal impulse $P$ is imparted to the rod at a distance $x = L/n$ from the mid-point of the rod (see figure), then the rod and string revolve together around the point $O$, with the rod remaining aligned with the string. In such a case, the value of $n$ is:

Which graph represents the relationship between angular momentum $L$ and angular velocity $\omega$ for a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis?

$A$ uniform rod of mass $8m$ and length $6a$ is placed on a horizontal table. Two point masses $m$ and $2m$ are moving with speeds $2v$ and $v$ respectively,as shown in the figure. They strike the rod and stick to it after the collision. Find the angular velocity of the rod about an axis passing through its center of mass.
