Answer:
0.3818 m
Explanation:
Given A thin uniform rod of length 1 m and mass 1 kg is rotating about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its length. Calculate the moment of inertia and radius of gyration of the rod about an axis passing through a point midway between the centre and its edge, perpendicular to its length.
Mass of thin rod = 1 kg, length of rod = l = 1 m
Now we need to find I and l ,
Moment of inertia of a thin rod about a transverse axis passing through its centre is
I g = I = Ml^2 / 12
By parallel axes theorem we have
I = Ig + Mh^2
I = Ml^2 /12 + Ml^2 / 16
I = 4 Ml^2 + 3 Ml^2 / 48
I = 7 Ml^2 / 48
I = 7x1 x 1 / 48 = 7 / 48
I = 0.1458 kg m^2
Now K^2 = l /m
K^2 = 0.1458 / 1
K = √0.1458
K = 0.3818 m
