The frame shown in the figure is hinged at point O, so that it is free to rotate in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis through O. The frame is made by welding two identical, slender and uniform rods of length L each. The rods are welded at 45o to each other, at the midpoint of the inclined rod. With the frame in its equilibrium position, a sharp horizontal impulse is given to the vertical rod, at some point P, as shown.

A thin uniform rod AB of mass m and length L is held in a vertical position above a frictionless horizontal floor, with its lower end A touching the floor, Th stick is released with a negligible horizontal push so that it

starts falling'. Since the floor is frictionless, energy is conserved. Further, the absence of any horizontal friction force on the rod ensures that its center of mass C follows a straight line path vertically down. Find the speed of points A and C at the moment when the rod makes an angle of 30o with the floor'.
