The moment of inertia of a rigid body about an axis
- A does not depend on its mass.
- B does not depend on its shape.
- C depends on the position of axis of rotation.
- D does not depend on its size.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) depends on the position of axis of rotation.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Moment of inertia of a body depends on the
mass of the body, distribution of mass in the body, position of axis of rotation of the body and on the distance from the axis of rotation.
