Problem

The moment of inertia of a uniform rectangular plate about a horizontal axis parallel to one of its edges and 0.10 m0.10\,\text{m} above its centre of mass is measured to be 0.54 kg m20.54\,\text{kg}\,\text{m}^2. The mass of the plate is 3.0 kg3.0\,\text{kg}. a. (i) Determine its moment of inertia about a parallel axis through the centre of mass. b. (ii) Calculate the radius of gyration of the plate about the given axis.
