Question: You have made a physical pendulum by swinging a rod of mass M = 0.73 kg and length L = 0.53 meters around its end.

  • You have made a physical pendulum by swinging a rod of mass M = 0.73 kg and length L = 0.53 meters around its end. The mass of the rod is distributed uniformly along its length. We will assume that the amplitude of the swing is max = 15.46 degrees. 

  •  Determine all the following: 

  • a. The FORMULA for the moment of inertia of your rod.

  • b. The distance from the pivot point to the Center-Of-Mass.

  • c. The angular frequency of the pendulum.

  • d. The amplitude of the motion in radians,.
