Question 2
The rigid body shown is rotated about an axis perpendicular to the paper and through the point P. If
M = 0.40 kg,
a = 30 cm, and
b = 50 cm, how much work is required to take the body from rest to an angular speed of 5.0 rad/s? Neglect the mass of the connecting rods and treat the masses as particles.
