QUESTION:

A 1.80-kg connecting rod from a car engine is pivoted about a horizontal knife edge as shown in ?Fig. E14.55?. The center of gravity of the rod was located by balancing and is 0.200 m from the pivot. When the rod is set into small-amplitude oscillation, it makes 100 complete swings in 120 s. Calculate the moment of inertia of the rod about the rotation axis through the pivot.

When the rod is set into small-amplitude oscillation, it makes 100 complete swings in 120 s. Calculate the moment of inertia of the rod about the rotation axis through the pivot.

ANSWER:

Solution 53E Step 1: Mass of the rod m = 1.80 kg Distance from the center of gravity d = 0.20 m Time period for 100 swings = 120 s Time period for one swing T = 1.2 s
