Calculate the moment of inertia of a uniform rod of mass `M` and length `l` about an axis passing through an end and perpendicular to the rod. The rod can be divided into a number of mass elements along the length of the rod.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Taking an element of mass `dm` at a distance `x` from the relation axis.
`I=int(dm)r^(2)-int_(0)^(1)(M/ldx)x^(2)=(Ml^(2))/3`
