Before Copernicus most people were thinking that the Earth is at center of universe. In 1609 Galileo observed sky through his home made telescope.
He found 4 moons orbiting Jupiter..It was a proof that bodies are orbiting other planets and not earth alone. <span>He found the crescent shape of Venus through his telescope and this could happen only if Sun is at center.</span>

A small ball with mass 2.50 kg is mounted on one end of a rod 0.750 m long and of negligible mass. The system rotates in a horiz

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.40625 kg-m^2

Explanation:

Supposing we have to calculate rotational moment of inertia

Given:

Mass of the ball m= 2.50 kg

Length of the rod, L= 0.78 m

The system rotates in a horizontal circle about the other end of the rod

The constant angular velocity of the system, ω= 5010 rev/min

The rotational inertia of system is equal to rotational inertia of the the ball about other end of the rod because the rod is mass-less

$I_{sys}= mL^2= 2.50\times 0.75^2$

=1.40625 kg-m^2

m= mass of the ball and L= length of the ball
