L=25piL=25π

Explanation:

"torque is given by formula:"torque is given by formula:
L=alpha*IL=αI
"if rod spinning around of its center: " I=1/12*m*L^2 if rod spinning around of its center: I=112mL2
"else use " I=1/3*m*L^2else use I=13mL2
I=1/12*2*5^2I=112252
I=1/12*50I=11250
I=50/12I=5012
alpha=2pi*24/8=6piα=2π248=6π
L=6pi*50/12L=6π5012
L=25piL=25π
