Answer:
the maximum is I₁ axis of rotation at the end
the minimum moment is I₂ axis of rotation at the center of mass
Explanation:
For this exercise we use the definition moment of inertia
I = ∫ r² dm
for bodies of high symmetry it is tabulated; In this case we can approximate a broomstick to a thin rod, the moment of inertia with respect to a perpendicular axis when varying are
at one end
I₁ = ⅓ mL²
in in center
I₂ = m L²
There is another possible axis of rotation around the axis of the broom, in this case we have a solid cylinder
I₃ = m r²
remember that the diameter of the broom is much smaller than its length, therefore this moment of inertia is very small
when examining the different moments of inertia:
the maximum is I₁ axis of rotation at the end
the minimum moment is I₂ axis of rotation at the center of mass
