    What Is the Period of Oscillation for a Hoop Suspended by Its Perimeter?

    Homework Statement a hoop of radius R=.18m and mass=.44kg is suspended by a point on its perimeter. If the hoop is allowed to oscillate side to side, what is the period of oscillation? Homework Equations I=MR^2 plus an offset? MR^2 so I=2(MR^2)? PE=1/2kx^2 w=(2pi)/T KErot=1/2Iw^2...
