Question

Yet another bizarre baton is created by taking four identical balls, each with mass 0.301 kg, and fixing them as before except that one of the rods has a length of 1.05 m and the other has a length of 1.64 m.

(a) Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure.

b)Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure, with the shorter rod vertical.

c)Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure, but with longer rod vertical.

Yet another bizarre baton is created by taking four identical balls, each with mass 0.301 kg, and fixing them as before except that one of the rods has a length of 1.05 m and the other has a length of 1.64 m. Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure. Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure, with the shorter rod vertical. Calculate the moment of inertia of this baton when oriented as shown in the figure, but with longer rod vertical.

Explanation / Answer

a) For a part you have to specify the length.

b) M. I with the shorter rod vertical = 1.61376 Kg m^2

c) M.I with the longer rod vertical = 0.6615 Kg m^2
