The three 250 g masses in the figure (Figure 1) are connected by massless, rigid rods.
Part A
What is the triangle's moment of inertia about the axis through the center? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
I = 4.0 × 10⁻² kg·m²
Part B
What is the triangle's kinetic energy if it rotates about the axis at 5.0 rev/s? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Krot = 0.7536 J
