Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 2:
The ______ theorem is used to calculate the moment of inertia of any section about the axis which is different from the axis passing through the centroid in the same plane.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 2 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
Parallel axis theorem:
The moment of inertia of a body about an axis parallel to the body passing through its center is equal to the sum of moment of inertia of the body about the axis passing through the center in the same plane and product of the mass of the body times the square of the distance between the two axes.
I = Icom + Mx2, Where I is the total moment of inertia of the body, Icom is the moment of inertia about the centre of mass, M is mass, x is the perpendicular distance from an axis passing from centre of mass.
Additional Information
Perpendicular axis theorem:
This theorem states that the moment of inertia of a plane lamina about an axis perpendicular to its plane is equal to the sum of its moments of inertia about two perpendicular axes concurrent with perpendicular axis and lying in the plane of the body.
Hence it can be expressed as \({I_z} = {I_y} + {I_x}\)
Here Ix, Iy and Iz are the moment of inertia of an object along X, Y and Z- axis respectively

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 4 Detailed Solution
Moment of Inertia of the triangular section about an axis through its CG and parallel to the base:
\({I_G} = {I_{x'x'}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{36}}\)
Applying Parallel Axis Theorem:
\({I_{BC}} = {I_{x'x'}} + Area\;of\;triangle \times {\left( {\frac{h}{3}} \right)^2}\)
\({I_{BC}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{36}} + \left( {\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h} \right) \times {\left( {\frac{h}{3}} \right)^2}\)
\({I_{BC}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{36}} + \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{18}}\)
\({I_{BC}} = \frac{{b{h^3} + 2b{h^3}}}{{36}} = \frac{{3b{h^3}}}{{36}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{12}}\)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 5:
Locate the centroid with respect to base AB of a rectangular section shown in the figure. Consider that a part of the circular section with diameter 150 mm is removed.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 5 Detailed Solution
Concept:
The centroid of the section shown in the question =
Where,
y1 is the distance centroid of the rectangle from base AB
y2 is the distance centroid of the circle from base AB
Explanation:
Given,
Area of rectangle = 300 x 200 = 60000 mm2
The centroid of the rectangle from AB = 150 mm
Area of circle = \( \frac{\pi }{4}\)x1502 = 17671.46 mm2
The centroid of the circle from AB = 300-100 = 200 mm
Thus, Centroid = = \( \frac{60000*150-17671.46*200 }{60000-17671.46}\)=129.1 mm
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 6:
For the section shown in the figure, the neutral axis lies at:
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 6 Detailed Solution
Concept:
For Neutral axis
\(̅{y}=\frac{A_{1}× y_{1}+A_{2}× y_{2}}{A_{1}+A_{2}}\)
Taking bottom section as reference
where, A1 = L × L/2
A2 = L/2 × L/2
y1 = (L/2 + L/4) = 3L/4
y2 = L/4
\(̅{y}=\frac{\left [ (L× \frac{L}{2})(\frac{3L}{4})+(\frac{L}{2}× \frac{L}{2})(\frac{L}{4}) \right ]}{\left ( L× \frac{L}{2}+\frac{L}{2}× \frac{L}{2} \right )}\)
y̅ = \({7L \over 12}\) from bottom
So, neutral axis from top, y̅' = \(L\;-{7L \over 12}={5L\over 12}\)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 7:
Moment of inertia of a square of side a about the diagonal is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 7 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
MOI for a Triangle:
About centroidal axis: \(I_G=\frac{bh^3}{36}\)
About base: \(I_{BC}=\frac{bh^3}{12}\)
A square can be divided into two triangles about its base.
Diagonal of square = Base of the triangle (b) = \(a\sqrt{2}\)
Height of triangle = Half of square diagonal (h) = \(\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\)
MOI of the square about the diagonal:
\(I_{square}=2\times \left(I_{triangle}\right)_{base}\)
\(I_{square}=2\times \frac{bh^3}{12}\)
\(I_{square}=2\times \frac{(a\sqrt{2})\left(\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^3}{12}\)
\(I_{square}=\frac{a^4}{12}\ \)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 8:
What is the moment of inertia of the given I section about its centroidal axis?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 8 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Moment of inertia of Rectangle about each of its centroidal axis is:
\({{\bf{I}}_{{\bf{xx}}}} = \frac{{{\bf{b}}{{\bf{d}}^3}}}{{12}}\;{\bf{and}}\;{{\bf{I}}_{{\bf{yy}}}} = \frac{{{\bf{d}}{{\bf{b}}^3}}}{{12}}\)
where b = width of the rectangle, h = height of the rectangle
Moment of inertia of the I section can be calculated by calculating the Moment of inertia of the rectangular section shown below
Now the Moment of inertia of I section = Moment of inertia of rectangle section 1 - (2 × Moment of inertia of rectangle Section 2)
Calculation:
Given:
b1 = 4t, d1 = 6t, \(b_2 = (2t-\frac{t}{2})=1.5t\), d2 = (6t - t - t ) = 4t
where b1 = width rectangle section 1, b2 = width rectangle section 2, d1 = height rectangle section 1, d1 = height rectangle section 2
\(Moment\ of\ inertia\ of\ I\ section= \frac{b_1d_1^3}{12}-(2\times\frac{b_2d_2^3}{12})\)
\(Moment\ of\ inertia\ of\ I\ section= \frac{4t×(6t)^3}{12}-(2\times\frac{1.5t×(4t)^3}{12})\)
\(Moment\ of\ inertia\ of\ I\ section= 72t^4-{16t^4}\)
\(Moment\ of\ inertia\ of\ I\ section= 56t^4\)

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 9 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Moment of inertia of a triangle with base b and height h
\({I_{base}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{12}}\)
Parallel axis theorem
Parallel axis theorem is used to find a moment of inertia about an axis which is at some distance from the centroidal axis and parallel to centroidal.
Suppose an axis is at distance d from the centroidal axis and parallel to the centroidal axis.
according to the parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia about that axis is given by,
\({I_{about~axis~parallel~to~centroida~laxis}} = {I_{about~centroidal~axis}} + A{d^2}\)
Moment of inertia about the centroidal axis of the triangle
Applying parallel axis theorem we get
\({I_{xx}} = {I_{cc}} + A{\left( {\frac{h}{3}} \right)^2}\)
\({I_{cc}} = {I_{xx}} - A{\left( {\frac{h}{3}} \right)^2}\)
\(I_{cc}=\frac{{b{h^3}}}{{12}} - \frac{{bh}}{2} \times \frac{{{h^2}}}{9} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{36}}\)
\({I_{centroid}} = \frac{{b{h^3}}}{{36}}\)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 10:
Calculate the value of y̅ (distance from line 'Ox' to centroid) for the I-section shown in the figure.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Moment of Inertia and Centroid Question 10 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Centre of gravity of plane figures (T-sections, I-sections, L-sections, etc.)
The plane geometrical figures (such as T-section, I-section, L-section etc.) have only areas but no mass. The centre of gravity of such figures is found out in the same way as that of solid bodies. The centre of area of such figures is known as centroid and coincides with the centre of gravity of the figure. It is a common practice to use the centre of gravity for centroid and vice versa.
Let \(\bar x\) and \(\bar y\) be the co-ordinates of the centre of gravity with respect to some axis of reference, then
\(\bar y={A_1y_1+A_2y_2+A_3y_3+.....+A_ny_n\over A_1+A_2+A_3+.....+A_n}={{\sum_{i=1}^{i=n}A_iy_i}\over \sum_{i=n}^{i=n}A_i}\)
\(\bar x={A_1 x_1+A_{2} x_2+A_3 x_{3}+.....+A_n x_n\over A_1+A_2+A_3+.....+A_n}={{\sum_{i=1}^{i=n}A_i x_i}\over \sum_{i=n}^{i=n}A_i}\)
where A1, A2, A3........ etc., are the areas into which the whole figure is divided x1, x2, x3 ..... etc., are the respective coordinates of the areas A1, A2, A3....... on X-X axis with respect to same axis of reference.
y1, y2, y3....... etc., are the respective coordinates of the areas A1, A2, A3....... on the Y-Y axis with respect to the same axis of the reference.
Calculation:
Given
\(\bar y={A_1y_1+A_2y_2+A_3y_3\over A_1+A_2+A_3}\)
\(A_1 =800\, mm^2\, y_1=69\, mm\)
\(A_2=400 \, mm^2\, y_2=44\, mm\)
\(A_3=600 \, mm^2\, y_3=12\, mm\)
\(\bar y={800\times 69+400\times 44+600\times 12\over 800+400+600}\)
\(\bar y={80000\over 1800}=44.44\, mm\)
\(\bar y=44.44\, mm\)
