Chapter 10, Problem 50PCE

The L-shaped object in Figure 10-32 can be rotated in one of the following three ways: case 1, rotation about the x axis, case 2 rotation about the y axis, and case 3 rotation about the z axis (which passes through the origin perpendicular to the plane of the figure) Rank these three cases in order of increasing moment of inertia, indicate ties where appropriate.
