Question
Three small blocks, each with mass .65 kg, are clamped at the ends and at the center of a rod of length 2.4 m and negligible mass. Compute the rotational inertia of the system (in kgm2) about an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through the center of the rod.
What is the rotational inertia if the thing is pivoted about one end?
Compute the rotational inertia of the system about an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through a point one-fourth of the length from one end.
