Moment of Inertia & Radius of Gyration

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

List-IList-II
(a) MI of the rod (length L, Mass M, about an axis ⊥\perp to the rod passing through the midpoint)(i) 8ML2/38ML^2/3
(b) MI of the rod (length L, Mass 2M, about an axis ⊥\perp to the rod passing through one of its end)(ii) ML2/3ML^2/3
(c) MI of the rod (length 2L, Mass M, about an axis ⊥\perp to the rod passing through its midpoint)(iii) ML2/12ML^2/12
(d) MI of the rod (Length 2L, Mass 2M, about an axis ⊥\perp to the rod passing through one of its end)(iv) 2ML2/32ML^2/3
Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. (a) ML212\frac{ML^2}{12} (iii).
  2. (b) (2M)L23=2ML23\frac{(2M)L^2}{3} = \frac{2ML^2}{3} (iv).
  3. (c) M(2L)212=ML23\frac{M(2L)^2}{12} = \frac{ML^2}{3} (ii).
  4. (d) (2M)(2L)23=8ML23\frac{(2M)(2L)^2}{3} = \frac{8ML^2}{3} (i).
  5. So the answer is (c).
