Moment of Inertia and Angular Acceleration
Two identical rods, A and B, each have a length L and mass M. A small mass m is attached to one end of Rod A, while an identical mass m is attached to the center of Rod B. If the same torque is applied about the center of each rod, how does the angular acceleration of Rod A (αA) compare to that of Rod B (αB)?
A
αA = αB
B
Comparison depends on the value of m
C
αA < αB
D
αA > αB
