Figure shows a ball having a charge \(q\) fixed at a point A. Two identical balls having charges \(+q\) and \(–q\) and mass \(‘m’\) each are attached to the ends of a light rod of length \(2 a\). The rod is free to rotate about a fixed axis perpendicular to the plane of the paper and passing through the mid-point of the rod. The system is released from the situation as shown in the figure. The angular velocity of the rod when the rod becomes horizontal will be:

         

1. \(\frac{\sqrt{2}q}{3 \pi \varepsilon_0 {ma}^3} \) 2. \(\frac{q}{\sqrt{3 \pi \varepsilon_0 {ma}^3 }}\)
3. \(\frac{q}{\sqrt{6 \pi \varepsilon_0 {ma}^3 }} \) 4. \(\frac{\sqrt{2} q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 m a^3} \)
