A uniform thin rod of length and mass is undergoing rotation about a fixed axis passing through end and perpendicular to the rod, such that end remains stationary as shown. The kinetic energy of section of the rod is equal to the kinetic energy of section of the rod at an instant. Then what is the value of ?( and are lengths of respective parts of the rod)

The KE of given section AP and PB will be equal if the moment of inertia of each section AP and section PB about A is same.

Moment of inertia of segment AP w.r.t given axis
Moment of inertia of segment PB w.r.t given axis
(Moment of inertia or rod AB w.r.t. given axis is )
Or

Moment of inertia of segment AP w.r.t given axis
Moment of inertia of segment PB w.r.t given axis
(Moment of inertia or rod AB w.r.t. given axis is )
