First let me say I appreciate everyone on these forums who takes the time out to help.
My question is as follows:
It has 2 parts.
Part 1:
A uniform meter stick (1 m long) is held on its edge against a frictionless table. The meter stick is released and it falls to the table.
Part 2:
The meter stick is connected so the stick can still fall but one end remains in place.
This is all the information I have and I am suppose to figure out the speed of the center of mass.
I am completely lost as how to do this.
Any help or guidance would be extremely beneficial. Thank you.
