Two rigidly connected homogeneous rods of the same length and mass `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` respectively form an angle `pi//2` and rest on a rough horizontal surface (Fig.) The system is uniformly pulled with the help of a string fixed to the vertex of the angle and parallel to the surface. Determine the angle `alpha` formed by the string and the rod of mass `m_(1)`. img src="https://d10lpgp6xz60nq.cloudfront.net/physics_images/SSK_ATP_PHY_C01_E01_050_Q01.png" width="80%"
