Explain
​Four point masses each of value m are placed at the corners of a square ABCD of side l. The moment of inertia of this system about an axis passing through A and parallel to BD is :



a) 2ml2
​b)  3 ml2
c)
3ml2
d) ml2
 

Dear student

The moment of inertia is given by I=mr2, where m is the mass of particle and r is the perpendicular distance of mass from axis of rotation.I=14miri2I=m14ri2I=mrA2+rB2+rc2+rD2I=m02+l22+l22+l22I=ml22+2l2+l22I=3ml2
