I think you meant bending :).
Anyway when light enters a different medium the bending of light is refraction. Depending on the medium (i.e if it is denser or rarer) it will bend light closer or away from the normal ray (i.e a ray that hits the medium at 90 degrees does not bend).
Hope this helps :).

Answer:

  L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of a particle is given by

         L = r xp

         L = r m v sin θ

the bold are vectors, where the angle is between the position vector and the velocity, in this case it is 90º therefore the sine is 1

as we have two bodies

       L = 2 r m v

let's find the distance from the center of mass, let's place a reference frame on one of the masses

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{M} \sum  x_{i} m_{i}i

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{m+m} ( 0 + l m)

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m}  lm

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2}

        x_{cm} = 13.1 / 2 = 6.05 m

let's calculate

          L = 2  6.05  74.3  5.65

          L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

f=10{Hz}\Longrightarrow t=\dfrac{1}{10}s

a_{max}=\dfrac{50\frac{m}{s}}{\frac{s}{10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{50\dfrac{m}{s^2}}{\sqrt{2}}\approx\boxed{35.4\dfrac{m}{s^2}}

Hope this helps.
