In the Figure, a Weightlifter's Barbell Consists of Two Identical

question 56

Short Answer

In the figure, a weightlifter's barbell consists of two identical small but dense spherical weights, each of mass 50 kg. These weights are connected by a thin 0.96-m rod with a mass of 24 kg. Find the moment of inertia of the barbell through the axis perpendicular to the rod at its center, assuming the two weights are small enough to be treated as point masses.
