Chapter 10, Problem 37SP
A uniform homogeneous rod of length L and mass m is in a horizontal plane. It hangs from an essentially massless wire of length L attached to the rod’s center of mass at one end and to a ceiling hook at the other end. Determine the rod’s moment of inertia about the hook. [Hint: Use the Parallel-Axis Theorem and Fig. 10-1, and look at the previous problem.]
