A smooth uniform rod of length $L$ and mass $M$ has two identical beads of negligible size, each of mass $m$ , which can slide freely along the rod. Initially the two beads are at the centre of the rod and the system is rotating with angular velocity $\omega _0$ about its axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through its mid-point (see figure). There are no external forces. When the beads reach the ends of the rod, the angular velocity of the system is
