Step 1
It depends on both the mass (m) and the distance (r) from the axis of rotation. The formula for the moment of inertia is I = m*r^2. In this case, we have four masses (m1, m2, m3, m4) each of 200 g or 0.2 kg. Let's assume that the distance from the axis of Show more…

What is the combined moment of inertia of three point objects $\left(\mathrm{m} 1=1.00 \mathrm{~kg}, m_{1}=1.00 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m} 2=1.50 \mathrm{~kg}, m_{2}=1.50 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m} 3=2.00 \mathrm{~kg}\right.$ $m_{3}=2.00 \mathrm{~kg}$ ) tied together with massless strings and rotating about the axis $O$ as shown in Figure 8-39?
