Consider a uniform solid cylinder with length L = 3 m and radius R = 2 m. The moment of inertia of the solid cylinder about an axis through its center is 12n kg.m². A piece of the cylinder at the center is removed. The radius of the removed cylinder at the center is R; = 1 m. What is the moment of inertia of the hollow cylinder about the axis P, parallel and tangent to the inner surface of the hollow cylinder as seen in the figure. - ---- -+ R = 2m L = 3 m L = 3 m ----> -- P.
