Moment of inertia of a square plate of side l about the axis...

Moment of inertia of a square plate of side ll about the axis passing through one of the corner and perpendicular to the plane of square plate is given by:

Moment of inertia of a square plate of side l about the axis passing through one of the corner and perpendicular to the

Options

  1. AMl26\dfrac{M{l}^{2}}{6}
  2. B23Ml2\dfrac{2}{3}M{l}^{2}
  3. CMl2M{l}^{2}
  4. DMl212\dfrac{M{l}^{2}}{12}

Correct answer

B. 23Ml2\dfrac{2}{3}M{l}^{2}

Step-by-step solution

Moment of inertia of a square plate of side l about the axis passing through one of the corner and perpendicular to the

Use parallel axis theorem to get the magnitude of the moment of inertia of a square plate of side ll about the axis passing through one of the corners and perpendicular to the plane of a square plate,

Iz=Icm+M(l2)2{I}_{z} = {I}_{cm} + M{\left(\dfrac{l}{\sqrt{2}}\right)}^{2}

⇒Iz=Ml26+Ml22=4Ml26=2Ml23⇒ {I}_{z} = \dfrac{M{l}^{2}}{6} + \dfrac{M{l}^{2}}{2} = \dfrac{4M{l}^{2}}{6} = \dfrac{2M{l}^{2}}{3}.
