MHT CET2018PhysicsRotational Motion
The moment of inertia of a thin uniform rod of length L and mass M about an axis passing through a point at a distance of L 3 from one of its ends and perpendicular to the rod is
Options
- AM L 2 12
- BM L 2 9
- C7 M L 2 48
- DM L 2 48
Correct answer
B. M L 2 9
Step-by-step solution
I C M = M L 2 12 (about middle point) Using parallel axis theorem. ∴ I = I C M + M x 2 = M L 2 12 + M L 6 2 I = M L 2 9
