A uniform lamina consists of a disc with radius R with a disc of radius r cut off from its centre, with r < R. The total mass of the object is M. Find the moment of inertia when the lamina rotates about an axis perpendicular to the lamina, thought its cen...

An object consists of two thin rods, AB with mass M and length 2L, and CD, of mass 2M and length L, joined together at right angles at their midpoints to form a cross. Let E be the point where the two rods intersect. Find the moment of inertia of the obje...

Find the moment of inertia of an A × A × A cube with mass M, for the following axes of rotation: (a) An axis through the midpoints of two opposing sides. (b) An axis along one of the edges of the cube.
