Problem

A thin rod of mass M=2 kgM = 2\,\text{kg} and length L=1.5 mL = 1.5\,\text{m} is hinged at one end to a vertical rotating shaft. The rod is locked in a position such that it makes a constant angle of 37∘37^{\circ} with the vertical axis. Calculate the Moment of Inertia of the rod about this vertical axis. (Use sin⁡37∘=0.6\sin 37^{\circ} = 0.6)
