PROBLEM SET 1
STATICS OF RIGID BODIES
1. Determine the moment of inertia of the area of the area shown in the figure about the x-
axis.
2. Using the figure below:
a. Determine the moment of inertia of the composite area about the centroidal y-axis
b. Locate the centroid y of the composite area, then determine the moment of inertia about
the x’-axis.
