The moment of inertia of the toy consisting of two balls at the end of a
Answer to Problem 68A
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The mass of the each of the two ball is,
The length of the rod,
Formula used:
The moment of inertia of a system about a point is given by,
Where
Calculation:
Now, the distance of each ball from the center of the rod is,
Then, moment of Inertia of the toy is,
Conclusion:
Thus, the moment of inertia of the toy is
