Ends of three light identical rods each of length I are connected to a light pivot that enables them to rotate in any direction. At the other ends of the rods, three particles A, B and C of masses m, 2m and 3m respectively are affixed. Initially, the rods are coplanar, angle between any two adjacent rod is 120° and the particles are at rest. Now the particle C is given a velocity u perpendicular to the rod connected to it and in the plane of the rods as shown in the figure. Ignore gravitational interaction between the particles. . Denoting acceleration vectors of the particles A, B and C by ā , ä, and äc respectively, which of the following conclusion can you make?
