Q.

A ring of mass M and radius R lies in x-y plane with its centre at origin as shown. The mass distribution of ring is non uniform such that, at any point P on the ring, the mass per unit length is given by λ = λ0cos2θ (where λ0 is a positive constant). Then the moment of inertia of the ring about z-axis is:

Detailed Solution

Divide the ring into infinitely small lengths of mass dmi. Even though mass distribution is non-uniform, each mass dmi is at same distance R from origin.∴  MI of ring about z-axis is= dm1R2+dm2R2+....+dmnR2 = MR2
