Please help with centroidal radius of gyration!
An automobile wheel-and-tire assembly with a total weight 47 lbs is attached to a mounting plate of negligible weight which is suspended from a steel wire. The torsional spring constant of the wire is known to be K = 0.40 lb-in./rad. The wheel is rotated through 90° about the vertical and then released. Knowing that the period of oscillation is observed to be 66 s, determine the centroidal mass moment of Inertia and...
