Question
Two identical rods each of mass 'M' and length 'l' are joined in crossed position as shown in figure. The moment of inertia of this system about a bisector would be
Answer: Option B
:
B
Moment of inertia of system about an axes which is perpendicular to plane of rods and passing through the common centre of rods Iz=Ml212+Ml212=Ml26
Again from perpendicular axes theorem I2=IB1+IB2=2IB1=2IB2=Ml26 [As IB1=IB2]
∴IB1=IB2=Ml212.
