A thin uniform rod, pivoted at O, is rotating in the horizontal plane with constant angular speed , as shown in the figure. At time t = 0, a small insect starts from O and moves with constant speed v, with respect to the rod towards the other end. It reaches the end of the rod at t = T and stops. The angular speed of the system remains throughout. The magnitude of the torque (||) about O, as a function of time is best represented by which plot ?
