Homework Statement
Rod of mass M and length 2R can rotate about an Axis passing through O in vertical plane a disc of mass M and radiusR/2 is hinged to the other end P of the rod and can freely rotate about p when the disc is at the lowest point both rod and disc has angular velocity w if rod rotates by maximum angle 60 degree with downward vertical find w in terms of r and g (all hinges are smooth)

Handwritten derivation on lined paper: 3mgR/2 + (1/2)m(R/2)^2 ω^2 = (1/2)(1/3)m(2R)^2 ω^2 + (1/2)(m(R/2)^2 + 4mR^2)ω^2 + (1/2)(m(R/2)^2/2)ω^2, with some terms crossed out.
is this eqn correct

Please turn the equation so that it can be read horizontally. Also, please explain what each term in the equation is supposed to represent. Then perhaps we will be able to tell you if it is correct and if it isn't, we will be able to point out where you went wrong. Writing the equations in LaTeX is encouraged and will be of great help.
 
Leave it i got the answer but thanks for your time 😊
