Question
Calculate the moment of inertia of each of the following
uniform
objects about the axes indicated. Consult Table 9.2 as needed.
(a) A thin 2.50 kg rod of length 75.0 cm, about an axis perpendicular
to it and passing through (i) one end and (ii) its center, and (iii) about
an axis parallel to the rod and passing through it. (b) A 3.00 kg
sphere 38.0 cm in diameter, about an axis through its center, if the
sphere is (i) solid and (ii) a thin-walled hollow shell. (c) An 8.00 kg
cylinder,
of length 19.5 cm and diameter 12.0 cm, about the central
axis of the cylinder, if the cylinder is (i) thin-walled and hollow, and
(ii) solid.
