A rigid uniform rod with mass m, length L and center of gravity G is freely suspended from a hinge as shown in the figure. The rod is given a small angular displacement θ in the counter-clockwise direction from the position in which it hangs vertically (θ = 0). If ݃ is the acceleration due to gravity, the natural frequency of oscillations (in rad/s) is
