A thin stick of length L is balanced vertically on frictionless ice. What happens to the motion of the centre of mass if it gets a big push above the centre of mass of the stick? Does the centre of mass move? If so how do you work it out?
This is more of an extra question I thought of when doing a homework problem
Explanations would be great thanks :)
We are assuming the centre of mass of the stick is at L/2
