Question
Moment of inertia of uniform triangular plate about axis passing through sides AB,AC, BC are IP,IB and IH respectively and about an axis perpendicular to the plane and passing through point C is IC, then :
- none of these
The correct answer is:
Moment of inertia is more when mass is farther from the axis. In case of axis BC, mass distribution is closest to it and in case of axis AB mass distribution is farthest. Hence
Here 
is moment of inertia of the plate about an axis perpendicular to it and passing through B.

A smooth uniform rod of length L and mass M has two identical beads (1 and 2) of negligible size, each of mass m, which can slide freely along the rod. Initially the two beads are at the centre of the rod and the system is rotating with angular velocity 
about an axis perpendicular to the rod and is passing through its midpoint. There are no external forces when the beads reach the ends of the rod, the angular velocity of the system is
