Answer:
103.68 NM
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> identify the given parameters
Max mass = 15kg
maya mass = 12kg
max distance from the center (a)= 2.4m
maya distance from the center (b) = 1.2m
Moment of inertia = M*r²
<u>Step 2:</u> calculate the moment of inertia (I) of max
I = M*r²
I = 15*(2.4)² = 86.4NM
<u>Step 3:</u> calculate moment of inertia of Maya
I = M*r²
I = 12*(1.2)² = 17.28NM
<u>Step 4: </u>find the total moment of inertia
Total moment of inertia = max moment of inertia + Maya moment of inertia
Total moment of inertia = 86.4 NM + 17.28NM
Total moment of inertia = 103.68 NM
