The three 200 g masses in the figure (Figure 1) are connected by massless, rigid rods.
Part A
What is the triangle's moment of inertia about the axis through the center?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Part B
What is the triangle's kinetic energy if it rotates about the axis at 6.0 rev/s?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Let r be the distance in m of each mass from the centroid of the triangle.
r = (2/3)*median
r = (2/3)[sq rt(0.40^2 - 0.20^2)]
r = 0.231 m
We know that:
The moment of inertia, I of the system of particles is given by
I = 3*0.200*(0.231^2)
I = 0.032 kg m^2
w = 2*pi*5.4 = 33.929 rad/s
Kinetic energy, KE of the system is:
KE = 0.5*I*w^2
KE = 18.42 J
