I still don't understand >.<
Since the Parallel Axis Theorem states that its I = I(center of mass) + Md^2, so wouldn't my statement be correct?
I = (1/12)ml^2 + M(L+R)^2?
1. Homework Statement
Ok So here's my question.
The physical Pendulum consists of a thin rod of mass m = 100 g and length 80 cm, and a spherical bob of mass M = 500 g and radius R = 25 cm. There a pivot P at the top of the rod.
(Sorry, I don't have a picture >.<)
a) It asks for the center of...
