Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is $I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}$

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is equal:

$I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dm$

If r is $-\frac{a}{2}$

and $dm=\frac{M}{a} dr$

$I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2}\frac{M}{a} } \, dr\\a=\frac{a}{2} \\b=-\frac{a}{2}$

$I=\frac{M}{a} \int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dr\\\\I=\frac{M}{a} (\frac{M}{3} )_{b}^{a}\\ I=\frac{M}{3a} (\frac{a^{3} }{8} +\frac{a^{3} }{8} )\\I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}$

How can you determine the rate of a chemical reaction?

DanielleElmas [232]

Take a look at a simple reaction like the one below:

In this reaction some reactant A is turned into some product B. The rate of reaction can be represented by a decrease in concentration of A over time or as the increase of B over time. This is written:
