$A$ rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is placed in a horizontal plane with one end hinged about a vertical axis. $A$ horizontal force of $F = \frac{Mg}{2}$ is applied at a distance $\frac{5L}{6}$ from the hinged end. The angular acceleration of the rod will be:

  • A
    $\frac{4g}{5L}$
  • B
    $\frac{5g}{4L}$
  • C
    $\frac{3g}{4L}$
  • D
    $\frac{4g}{3L}$
