Explanation / Answer

86. The correct option is b) 37 kg m2.

Moment of inertia M = 5 x 12 + 8 x 22 = 37 kg m2.

87. The correct option is c) 28 kg m2.

Moment of inertia M = 5 x 22 + 8 x 12 = 28 kg m2.

88. The correct option is e) 65 kg m2.

Moment of inertia M = 5 x (22 + 12) + 8 x (22 + 12) = 65 kg m2.

89. The correct option is a) (1.125 m, 1.3125 m).

Xcm = (3 x 0 + 8 x 1 + 5 x 2)/(3+8+5) = 18/16 = 1.125 m

Ycm = (3 x 0 + 8 x 2 + 5 x 1)/(3+8+5) = 21/16 = 1.3125 m
