A slender rod CDE of length L and mass m is attached to a pin support at its midpoint D. A second and identical rod AB is rotating about a pin support at A with an angular velocity ω1 when its end B strikes end C of rod CDE. Denoting by e the coefficient of restitution between the rods, determine the angular velocity of each rod immediately alter the impact.
