Homework Statement
Consider a rod of length L and mass m which
is pivoted at one end. The moment of inertia
of the rod about an end is Irod = 1/3 mL2. An object with mass m is attached to the free end of the rod.
Find the moment of inertia of the system
with respect to the pivot point. Consider
the mass at the end of the rod to be a point
particle.
I tried a lot of different things and now I only get one more try. I need help. Thanks in advance
Homework Equations
Irod = 1/3 mL2.
I=Icm+mr2
The Attempt at a Solution
I think you have to use the Parrallel axis theorem ( I=Icm+mr2). But I am stuck here.
