A wire frame AOPQB lies in a horizontal plane and rotates about a vertical axis through C. Mass M is uniform over the frame. Given OA=QB=r and CP=r, find the moment of inertia about the axis through C.

Answer:
A
Solution:

The frame length is (π+2)r, so its linear density is M/[(π+2)r].

The semicircle contributes λπr³.

The two straight parts contribute 2λ∫ᵣ²ʳ y²dy=14λr³/3.

Thus I=Mr²(14+3π)/(6+3π).
