Angular Momentum and the Parallel Axis Theorem
A rigid rod of length L and mass M has an angular momentum of L₀ when rotating about an axis through its center of mass. Determine the rod’s angular momentum when it rotates with the same angular velocity about a parallel axis passing through one of its ends.
A
L₀ + ML²ω/3
B
L₀ + ML²ω/4
C
L₀
D
