Four small objects each of mass \(m\) are fixed at the corners of a rectangular wire-frame of negligible mass and of sides \(a\) and \(b(a>b)\) If the wire frame is now roated about an axig passing along the side of length \(b,\) then the moment of inertia of the system for this axis of rotation is

  1. A \(2 \mathrm{ma}^{2}\)
  2. B \(4 \mathrm{ma}^{2}\)
  3. C \(2 m\left(a^{2}+b^{2}\right)\)
  4. D \(2 m\left(a^{2}-b^{2}\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 \mathrm{ma}^{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given situation can be shown as Moment of inertia of the system about side of length \(b\) say \(C D\) is \(=M .I .\) of mass at \(A\) about \(C D+M .I .\) of mass at \(B\) mass ot \(D\) about \(C D\)…
