Answer:
Angular momentum increases and gravitational potential energy decreases after the bug lands.
Explanation:
After the bug lands, the rod begins to rotate. As the system was at rest before, when it begins to rotate, its angular momentum increases from zero to positive.
As the rod begins to rotate, the heavier mass of bug and sphere goes down while the lighter mass of sphere goes up. So the system's gravitational potential energy decreases.
