Refer to picture on bottom.

a) At the bottom is a 3 step pulley; consisting ofthree wheelsof different diameters.b) The rotating arm has two massesattached,and is screwed into the 3 step pulley. Whenthe pulleyrotates, so does the rod.c) The string is wrapped around one ofthewheels in the 3 step pulley and passes overthe smart pulley. Themass hanger ishooked into the loop at the end of the string.d) Whenthe system is released, the mass hanger falls, turning the smartpulley, and the 3 step pulley withthe rod attached.e) Assume: thatthe smart pulley is very light, so its moment of inertia isnegligible as compared to themoment of inertia of the 3 step pulleyand rod.

Suppose the rod has mass M = 867 g, length L = 49.3 cm, and rotates on a fixed,frictionless axis through the center of mass. Initially, assumethere are no masses attached to the rod.

a) Find the moment of inertia of the rod.
kg-m2

b) Now, assume two point masses of massm = 681 g are attachedto the rod, one on each side, at distance r = 22.3 cm from the center of mass of the rod.Find the moment of inertia of the rod-plus-masses system.
kg-m2

if you increase m, the mass on the mass holder,what happens to the following quantities:
- α, the angular accelertion ofthe pulley.
- I, the angular momentum of the pulleys-plus-rodsystem.

α decreases, I decreases- α decreases, I remainsthe same - α increases, I increases- α increases, I remainsthe same - α remains thesame, I increases - α remains thesame, I remains the same- α remains thesame, I decreases - α increases, I decreases- α decreases, I increases
