-
Question
Use a table of properties to find the Area Moment of inertia for simple shapes: rectangle, triangle, circle, semicircle, and quarter circle.
The parallel axis theorem is not required for any of these shapes. One situation requires subtracting a triangle from a rectangle however.
Distinguish between centroidal and non-centroidal moments of inertia.
