The torque for the rod rotating about the center is $= 241.3 N m$ $=241.3Nm$
The torque for the rod rotating about one end is $= 965.1 N m$ $=965.1Nm$

Explanation:

The torque is the rate of change of angular momentum

$τ = \frac{d L}{d t} = \frac{d (I ω)}{d t} = I \frac{d ω}{d t} = I α$ $tau=(dL)/dt=(d(Iomega))/dt=I(domega)/dt=Ialpha$

The mass of the rod is $m = 8 k g$ $m=8kg$

The length of the rod is $L = 6 m$ $L=6m$

The moment of inertia of a rod, rotating about the center is

$I = \frac{1}{12} \cdot m L^{2}$ $I=1/12*mL^2$

$= \frac{1}{12} \cdot 8 \cdot 6^{2} = 24 k g m^{2}$ $=1/12*8*6^2= 24 kgm^2$

The rate of change of angular velocity is

$\frac{d ω}{d t} = \frac{8}{5} \cdot 2 π$ $(domega)/dt=(8)/5*2pi$

$α = (\frac{16}{5} π) r a d s^{- 2}$ $alpha=(16/5pi) rads^(-2)$

So the torque is $τ = 24 \cdot (\frac{16}{5} π) N m = 241.3 N m$ $tau=24*(16/5pi) Nm=241.3Nm$

The moment of inertia of a rod, rotating about one end is

$I = \frac{1}{3} \cdot m L^{2}$ $I=1/3*mL^2$

$= \frac{1}{3} \cdot 8 \cdot 6^{2} = 96 k g m^{2}$ $=1/3*8*6^2=96kgm^2$

So,

The torque is $τ = 96 \cdot (\frac{16}{5} π) = \frac{504}{5} π = 965.1 N m$ $tau=96*(16/5pi)=504/5pi=965.1Nm$
