Rotational Motion · Moment of inertia
Moment of inertia about an axis AB for a rod of mass 40 kg and length 3 m is same as that of a solid sphere of mass of 10 kg and radius R about an axis parallel to AB axis with separation of 3 m as shown in figure below. The value of R is given as . The value of is .
