Concept explainers
Whether the moments of inertia about three axes of the textbook is same or different.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Moment of inertia is the quantity resist the angular motion of a body. Moment of inertiadepends on the mass times the square of the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation.
The moment of inertia depends on the mass and distance from the axis of book. As the dimensions of book is not same.Length, breadth and height of a book is different.
Conclusion:
So, moment of inertia is not same for the three axes.
