Calculate the moment of inertia of the stick about its end having a mass of 22 kg and length of 22 cm.(a) .088 kgm^2(b) .087 kgm^2(c) .089 kgm^2(d) .086 kgm^2This question was posed to me in final exam.Question is taken from Methods to Reduce the Energy Loss During Starting topic in portion Starting of Electric Drives

Answer»

Correct answer is (b) .087 kgm^2

The explanation: The moment of inertia of the stick about its end can be CALCULATED USING the formula I=ML^2÷3. The mass of the stick about its end and length is given. I = (22)×.33×(.11)^2 =.087 kgm^2. It depends upon the ORIENTATION of the rotational axis.
