Answer:
moment of inertia I ≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³ kg.m²
Explanation:
given
point masses = 50g = 0.050kg
note: m₁=m₂=m₃=m₄=50g = 0.050kg
distance, r, from masses to eachother = 20cm = 0.20m
the distance, d, of each mass point from the centre of the mass, using pythagoras theorem is given by
= (20√2)/ 2 = 10√2 cm =14.12 x 10⁻² m
moment of inertia is a proportion of the opposition of a body to angular acceleration about a given pivot that is equivalent to the entirety of the products of every component of mass in the body and the square of the component's distance from the center
mathematically,
I = ∑m×d²
remember, a square will have 4 equal points
I = ∑m×d² = 4(m×d²)
I = 4 × 0.050 × (14.12 x 10⁻² m)²
I = 0.20 × 1.96 × 10⁻²
I = 3.92 x 10⁻³ kg.m²
I ≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³ kg.m²
attached is the diagram of the equation
