A thin uniform rod of mass M and length L is bent at its center so that the two segments are perpendicular to each other. Find its moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through the point where the two segments meet.

Explanation:

The moments of the whole object is the sum of the moments of the 2 segments of rod at their ends of which length is L/2 and mass M/2:

explanation:

could i give you a exaplo that could you?

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
