Calculate the mass of the solid sphere having a moment of inertia 17 kgm^2 and radius of 4 cm.(a) 10624 kg(b) 10625 kg(c) 10628 kg(d) 10626 kgThe question was posed to me during an internship interview.Asked question is from Starting in division Starting of Electric Drives

Answer»

Correct option is (b) 10625 KG

To explain: The moment of inertia of the ball can be calculated using the formula I=Σmiri^2. The moment of inertia of ball and radius is given. M=(17)÷(.04)^2 = 10625 kg. It DEPENDS upon the orientation of the rotational axis.
