The wedge of mass M with angle at the apex fits snugly to the vertical wall and rests on a bar of mass m located on the horizontal plane. The top of the wedge is at a height H above this plane, and the end of the wedge is at a height h < H above the top surface of the bar. The bar is first held in this position, and then released. Find the speed of bar (in m/s) at the time of separation from the wedge. Neglect friction. [Take ]

Answer:
2.81
Solution:

Contact constraint: for .

Energy from release to separation (wedge drops m): .

m/s
