See attached picture. Three equal masses are connected using two light (massless) rods of the same length to form a right angle.  About which axis will the moment of inertia for this object be largest?

a) A

b) B

c) C

d) B and C

 

The image depicts a simple molecular structure diagram, showing three connected atoms arranged in a specific geometric shape. The atoms are represented by solid black dots connected by straight lines indicating bonds.

- The central atom is connected to two other atoms, forming a bent or V shape.
- Three dashed lines with labels A, B, and C extend from the structure:
  - Line A is horizontal, pointing to the right from the rightmost atom.
  - Line B is diagonal from the rightmost atom, directed downwards and to the right.
  - Line C is vertical, extending downwards from the central atom.

This diagram illustrates the spatial orientation of atoms in a molecule, useful for understanding molecular geometry such as trigonal planar or bent structures.
