[. Homework Statement
Once you place a stirring rod (uniform density) of length 2R in a frictionless hemispherical bowl of radius R, it always comes to rest after one of its ends makes an angle of θ0 with respect to the vertical
(diagram attached)
a) derive a root equation for f(θ)=0 that can be used to solve for θ0]
b) what is the numerical value of θ0?
2. Homework Equations
none
3. The Attempt at a Solution
sorry but I don't know the concepts that can be used to solve such problem. please help me. Thank you very much
we are currently taking up oscillations and i tried to relate it but i end up totally messed up.
