Two homogeneous spheres of mass M radius R joined by a bar of length L = 2R, negligible mass, and suspended from its geometric center by a rope such that when rotated ϕ exerts torque −kϕ with k torsion coefficient of the wire. The air exerts dissipative effect F = −6πηv on each sphere, where η is the viscosity of the air and v is the linear velocity of each sphere. If I0 = 25MR2 is the moment of inertia of a sphere with respect to its center of mass (image 1)determine the equation of motion of the pendulum. (image 2)
