I've taken a look at that, but I don't understand why the radius of gyration is different from the distance from the pivot to the center of mass.

How do you calculate the moment of inertia given frequency of oscillation?

Sorry, I don't quite follow. I'm confused on how I calculate moment of inertia from frequency.

I have a cane with non-uniform density and I'm trying to find its moment of inertia. There is no equation for its mass/density vs. length. If you need to picture it, it's a folding White Cane used by the blind. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000VB0CG0/?tag=pfamazon01-20 I found the center of mass...
