The rotational inertia of a thin rod about one end is 1/3 ML^2. Suppose you are asked to approximate the rotational inertia of an airplane propeller that contains three blades. Each blades shape is rods-like, the mass of each blade is 16.4 kg, and the length of each blade is 1.50. What is total rotational inertia of the mass propeller?
