Question

3. Apply equation (17) (the one you just derived in problem 2) to calculate the moment of inertia of the support alone, $I_s$. (You may pick any one value of $m$ and the corresponding $t$ to plug in. It might be interesting to check whether different choices for $m$ give the same result.) How does your result compare to the value obtained graphically? Now use equation (17) to calculate $I_D$, $I_R$, $I_{D+R}$, and $I_C$. (Remember that $I$ in the equation is the moment of inertia of the whole system, including the support.) Compare your answers with the values obtained earlier. 4. Discuss possible sources of error in this experiment. Be specific; don't just cite \"human error.\" Estimate the amount of uncertainty in your measurements. What could be done to reduce errors in a future experiment?
