    Moment of Inertia of a Rectangle

    Thanks, I'm new to the calculus lingo. So, for example, if the center of rotation is the bottom of the rectangle (its thin btw) so the center point would be (a/2,0) if the bottom left of the rectangle were the origin, how would I do the moment of inertia for this? I'm still solving for...

    Moment of Inertia of a Rectangle

    I have been trying to do the moment of inertia of a rectangle and I have it figured out when we have the center of the rectangle as the center of the rotation. The equation is ∫∫ρ(x^2+y^2)dy dx where the first integral is from -b/2 to b/2 (if b is the height) and the second integral is -a/2 to...
