Four point particles, each with mass 1/4m, are connected by massless rods so that they form a square whose sides have length a.

A) what is the moment of inertia   I (COR)   of this object if it is spun around an axis going through the center of the square perpendicular to the plane of the square?(COR: Center Of Rotation)

B) what would be the moment of inertia I (AOR) of the square if it were spun around axis going through one particle and its diagonal opposite? (AOR: Axis of Rotation)

C) Explain why we cannot apply the parallel Axis Theorem to find I (AOR) in terms of I (COR) in this case.
