In a physics lab experiment for the determination of moment of inertia, a team weighs an object and finds a mass of 2.15 kg. They then hang the object on a pivot located 0.163 m from the object's center of mass and set it swinging at a small amplitude. As two of the team members carefully count 113 cycles of oscillation, the third member measures a duration of 241 s. What is the moment of inertia of the object with respect to its center of mass about an axis parallel to the pivot axis

0.339 kgm²

Explanation:

We know the period of this pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of the object about the pivot axis, m = mass of object = 2.15 kg, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of center of mass of object from pivot point = 0.163 m.

Since T = 2π√(I/mgh), making I subject of the formula, we have

I = mghT²/4π²

Now since it takes 241 s to complete 113 cycles, then it takes 241 s/113 cycles to complete one cycle.

So, T = 241 s/113 = 2.133 s

So, Substituting the values of the variables into I, we have

I = mghT²/4π²

I = 2.15 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.163 m × (2.133 s)²/4π²

I = 15.63/4π² kgm²

I = 0.396 kgm²

Now from the parallel axis theorem, I = I' + mh² where I' = moment of inertia of object with respect to its center of mass about an axis parallel to the pivot axis

I' = I - mh²

I' = 0.396 kgm² - 2.15 kg × (0.163 m)²

I' = 0.396 kgm² - 0.057 kgm²

I' = 0.339 kgm²

option number c is the right answer.

um if your asking how to beat a level then that i can with that and how to fix your wii but other than that i can't u
