    Calculating the Angular velocity and momentum of a rotating cuboid

    Using the formula shown above: I = 1/12 m(a^2+b^2) where a and b are 10, 20, 40 for the various faces. Then L= Iω. I have double checked them and am fairly certain they are numerically correct, but I may be making a method error.

    Calculating the Angular velocity and momentum of a rotating cuboid

    Homework Statement A concrete block is a uniformly dense cuboid of dimensions 40 x 20 x 10 cm, with mass M. It is constrained to rotate about an axis passing through two opposite corners and its centre of mass, with constant angular speed ω. Calculate the direction of the angular...
