Rotational Motion Question 203

Question: From a solid sphere of mass M and radius R a cube of maximum possible volume is cut. Moment of inertia of cube about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to one of its faces is

Options:

A) 4MR293π

B) 4MR233π

C) MR2322π

D) MR2162π

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] Here

a=23R

Now, MM=43πR3a3 =43πR3(23R)3=32π.

M=2M3π

Moment of inertia of the cube about the given axis,

I=Ma26

=2M3π×(23R)26=4MR293π
