To find the minimum moment of inertia of a system of particles with masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) interconnected by a rigid light bar of length \( l \), about an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through it, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Configuration We have two masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) connected by a rigid light bar of length \( l \). The moment of inertia (I) about an axis perpendicular to the rod can be calculated using the parallel axis theorem. ### Step 2: Use the Parallel Axis Theorem The parallel axis theorem states: \[ ...
