A system consists of two identical spheres each of mass 1.5 kg and radius 50 cm at the ends of a light rod. The distance between the centres of the two spheres is 5 m. What will be the moment of inertia of the system about an axis perpendicular to the rod passing through its midpoint?
  1. 1.905×105 kg m2
  2. 18.75 kg m2
  3. 19.05 kg m2
  4. 1.875×105 kg m2

Solution


I=25MR2+Mx2×2=25×1.5×0.52+1.5×2.52×2=[0.15+9.375]×2=19.05kgm2
