A long horizontal rod has a bead which can slide along its length, and initially placed at a distance $L$ from one end $A$ of the rod. The rod is set in angular motion about $A$ with constant angular acceleration $\alpha$. If the coefficient of friction between the rod and the bead is $\mu$, and gravity is neglected, then the time after which the bead starts slipping is
