A meter stick is supported horizontally at each end by your fingers. A heavy object rests on one end of the stick. If you
remove your fingers under the end that holds the object, that end of the meter stick falls faster than the object. Why?
(a) The object is heavier than the meter stick.
(b) The rotational inertia of the object is larger than that of a meter stick.
(c) The acceleration of certain parts of the meter stick can be greater than 9.8 m/s2.
(d) Both b and c are correct.
