Question

5mR^2

(a) Iy = 0.5mR^2

(b) Iz = 0.2mR^2

(c) Iy = 0.7mR^2

I got this question at a job interview.

This interesting question is from Mass Moment of Inertia topic in division Moments of Inertia of Engineering Mechanics

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) Iy = 0.5mR^2

For explanation: The measure of moment of inertia of a body is important. It’s very useful in the designing of the structures. It also helps in the determination of the strength of the body. Thus a very useful thing in the structural engineering.
