The parallel axis theorem provides a helpful way to


The parallel axis theorem provides a helpful way to calculate the moment of inertia I about an arbitrary axis. The theorem states that I =Icm + Mh2, where Icm is the moment of inertia of the object relative to an axis that passes during the center of mass and is parallel to the axis of interest, M is the total mass of the object, and h is the perpendicular distance among the two axes. Utilize this theorem and information to establish the moment of inertia (kg·m2) of a solid cylinder of mass M = 7.30 kg and radius R = 8.20 m relative to an axis that lies on the surface of the cylinder and is vertical to the circular ends.
