17% part (f) the meter stick is now replaced with a uniform yard stick with the same mass of m = 735 g . calculate the moment of inertia in kg⋅m2 of the yard stick if the pivot point p is 50 cm from the end of the yardstick.

The moment of inertia of yard stick about pivot point is 0.05121 kg.m².

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of  stick = 735 g

Distance = 50 cm

We need to calculate the moment of inertia of yard stick about pivot point

Using formula of moment of inertia

Where, m = mass of stick

l = distance

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The moment of inertia of yard stick about pivot point is 0.05121 kg.m².
