Determine experimentally which rotational axis yields the maximum rotational inertia (i.e., moment of inertia) and which yields the minimum rotational inertia for the broom stick. Draw a picture of the broom stick with its axis of rotation for (i) the minimum rotational inertia and (ii) the maximum rotational inertia.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  the maximum is I₁ axis of rotation at the end

     the minimum moment is I₂ axis of rotation at the center of mass

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition moment of inertia

          I = ∫ r² dm

for bodies of high symmetry it is tabulated; In this case we can approximate a broomstick to a thin rod, the moment of inertia with respect to a perpendicular axis when varying are

at one end

           I₁ = ⅓ mL²

in in center

           I₂ = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] m L²

There is another possible axis of rotation around the axis of the broom, in this case we have a solid cylinder

           I₃ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] m r²

remember that the diameter of the broom is much smaller than its length, therefore this moment of inertia is very small

when examining the different moments of inertia:

     the maximum is I₁ axis of rotation at the end

     the minimum moment is I₂ axis of rotation at the center of mass
