Question

This is wrong. The correct answer does not depend on x,y or z

Part C Find the moment of inertia I of particle a with respect to the x axis (that is, if the x axis is the axis of rotation), the moment of inertia Iy of particle a with respect to the y axis, and the moment of inertia I2 of particle a with respect to the z axis (the axis that passes through the origin perpendicular to both the x and y axes). Express your answers in terms of m and r separated by commas. Submit My Answers Give Up Incorrect; Try Again; 2 attempts remaining

Explanation / Answer

for a particle of mass m and location x, y and z
Ix = m*(y^2 + z^2)
Iy = m*(x^2 + z^2)
Iz = m*(y^2 + z^2)

this can be derived as under
sonider Ix
then the prependicular distance of the particel from the x axis is sqroot(y^2 + z^2)
hence
moment of inertia = m(y^2 + z^2)
similiarly
Iy = m*(x^2 + z^2)
Iz = m*(y^2 + z^2)
