Using conservation of angular momentum about \mathrm{CM} of the rod. Assuming after impulse velocity of \mathrm{CM} becomes \mathrm{}\vartheta. Then

\mathrm{L =I \omega }
\mathrm{m \vartheta x =I_{c m} .\omega }
\mathrm{\omega =\frac{m \vartheta x}{I_{c m}} }
\mathrm{\omega =\frac{m \vartheta x}{\frac{m l^{2}}{12}}=\frac{12 \vartheta x}{l^{2}} }

If \mathrm{x_{0}} is the distance of IAOR

\mathrm{O=\vartheta-\omega x_{0} }
\mathrm{O=\vartheta-\left(\frac{12 \vartheta x}{l^{2}}\right) x_{0} }
\mathrm{\vartheta=\frac{12 \vartheta x}{l^{2}} \cdot x_{0} }
\mathrm{x_{0}=\frac{l^{2}}{12 x}} Ans.
