To find the moment of inertia of a system of two masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) placed at a distance \( r \) from each other about an axis passing through their center of mass, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the position of the center of mass (G) The position of the center of mass \( G \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ x_G = \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2 x_2}{m_1 + m_2} ...
