Q157 Allen 2. Moment of Inertia MCQ

Comprehension Passage: PARAGRAPH FOR QUESTION NO. 111 AND 112

In the treatment of moments of inertia, introductory textbooks often present two theorems, generally called the parallel axis theorem and the perpendicular axis theorem. There is another theorem of this same genre, which is not usually included, but which is interesting and useful. It is $$ I _ {x} + I _ {y} + I _ {z} = 2 \sum_ {i} m _ {i} r _ {i} ^ {2} $$ Here, $I_{x}$ , $I_{y}$ and $I_{z}$ are the moments of inertia about three mutually perpendicular intersecting axes, $m_{1}$ is the mass of the $i^{th}$ particle and $r_{i}$ is the distance from the intersection. The proof is simple: Taking the three axes as coordinate axes, have : $$ \begin{array}{r l} & I _ {x} + I _ {y} + I _ {z} \\ & = \sum_ {i} m _ {i} (y _ {i} ^ {2} + z _ {i} ^ {2}) + \sum_ {i} m _ {i} (z _ {i} ^ {2} + x _ {i} ^ {2}) + \sum_ {i} m _ {i} (x _ {i} ^ {2} + y _ {i} ^ {2}) \\ & = 2 \sum_ {i} m _ {i} (x _ {i} ^ {2} + y _ {i} ^ {2} + z _ {i} ^ {2}) = 2 \sum_ {i} m _ {i} r _ {i} ^ {2} \end{array} $$ One important application is the calculation of the moment of inertia $I_{d}$ of a uniform thin-walled spherical shell, of mass M and radius R, about a diameter. Taking the centre as the origin of coordinates, have $I_{x} = I_{y} = I_{z} = I_{d}$ , and $r_{i} = R$ . The theorem gives $3I_{d} = 2\Sigma_{i} m_{i}R^{2} = 2(\Sigma_{i}m_{i})R^{2} = 2MR^{2}$ , where $I_{d} = 2MR^{2/3}$ . Consider a solid cube of mass m and side L.

A.

Q168 Allen 5. Angular Momentum & its Conservation MCQ

Comprehension Passage: PARAGRAPH FOR QUESTION NO. 122 AND 123

When an athlete takes off from the ground in a long jump, the force on the launching foot gives her an angular momentum in clockwise direction around the horizontal axis. This rotation would not allow her to land properly. In the landing, the legs should be together and extended forward at an angle so that heels marks the sand at greatest distance. Once in air the angular momentum cannot change. However, the jumper can shift most of the angular momentum to the arms by rotating them clockwise as shown in the figure. Then the body comes to proper orientation for landing. Assume that in 0.7 sec one arm covers 1/2 a revolution and another arm covers 1 revolution. Each arm is a thin rod of mass 4 kg and length 0.6 m rotating at one end. Assume that this 0.7 sec. is time of flight. What is the angular momentum of both arms in athlete's frame (in SI units)
