Two identical spherical balls of mass and radius each are stuck on two ends of a rod of length and mass (see figure). The moment of inertia of the system about the axis passing perpendicularly through the centre of the rod is




Important Questions on Rotational Motion
A rigid massless rod of length has two masses attached at each end as shown in the figure. The rod is pivoted at point on the horizontal axis. When released from the initial horizontal position, its instantaneous angular acceleration will be



Three particles of masses , and are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side (as shown in the figure). The coordinates of the centre of mass will be:







Seven identical circular planar disks, each of mass M and radius R are welded symmetrically as shown. The moment of inertia of the arrangement about the axis normal to the plane and passing through the point P is:
