 1.  Which of the following statements are true of moment of inertia?


a)  For a given body (e.g., a sphere or a cube), the position of the axis about which the moment of inertia

b)  is calculated (i.e., the axis of rotation in our case) will affect its value.

c)  the moment of inertia of a uniform thin walled hollow sphere (about an axis passing through its center

d)  of mass) is less than that of a uniform solid sphere (about an axis passing through its center of mass)

e)  c) a single mass M, spinning at the end of a string a distance R from the axis of rotation, has the same

f)  value for moment of inertia as a solid uniform cylinder spinning about a central axis.

g)  the moment of inertia of a rotating system will always be greater than its mass

h)  only options a-b are correct
