The left end of a massless stick with length $l$ is placed on the corner of a table, as shown in Fig. A point mass $m$ is attached to the center of the stick, which is initially held horizontal. It is then released. Immediately afterward, what normal force does the table exert on the stick?

A
$0$
B
$mg/6$
C
$mg/2$
D
$mg$
Solution

$m g-N_{Y}=ma$ $…(i)$
$\operatorname{mg} \frac{\ell}{2}=\left[\mathrm{m}\left(\frac{\ell}{2}\right)^{2}\right] \alpha$ $…(ii)$
$\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{Y}}=0$
