JEE Main2008PhysicsRotational MotionActual
Consider a uniform square plate of side ' a ' and mass ' m '. The moment of inertia of this plate about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through one of its corners is
Options
- A5 6 m a^2
- B1 12 m a^2
- C7 12 m a^2
- D2 3 m a^2
Correct answer
D. 2 3 m a^2
Step-by-step solution
I=I_ c m +m ( a 2 2 )^2= m a^2 6 + m a^2 2 = 2 3 m a^2
