A uniform wooden meter stick has a mass of m = 719 g. A clamp can be attached to the measuring stick at any point P along the stick so that the stuck can rotate freely about point P, which is at a distance d from the zero-end of the stick as shown.
a. Calculate the moment of inertia in kg⋅m2 of the meter stick if the pivot point P is at the 50-cm mark.
b. Calculate the moment of inertia in kg⋅m2 of the meter stick if the pivot point P is at the 0-cm mark d = 0 cm.
c. Calculate the moment of inertia in kg⋅m2 of the meter stick if the pivot point P is at the d = 25 cm mark.
d. Calculate the moment of inertia in kg⋅m2 of the meter stick if the pivot point P is at the d = 69 cm mark.
