JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 6. system of particles and rotational motion

A uniform thin bar of mass \(6 \,kg\) and length \(2.4\, meter\) is bent to make an equilateral hexagon. The moment of inertia about an axis passing through the centre of mass and perpendicular to the plane of hexagon is ...... \(\times \,10^{-1} \,kg m ^{2}\)

  1. A \(16\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(24\)
  4. D \(4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(6 \ell=2.4 \quad \ell=0.4 \,m\) \(\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{ r }{\ell}\) \(r =\ell \sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\ell \sqrt{3}}{2}\) MOI, \(\quad I=\left[\frac{m \ell^{2}}{12}+\operatorname{mr}^{2}\right] 6\)…
