I A B = m ( 0 ) 2 + 2 m a 2 2 + 3 m a 2 2

I A B = m a 2 2 + 3 m a 2 4 = 5 m a 2 4 I A B = 25 m a 2 20 = N 20 m a 2 N = 25

I = I 1 + I 2 + I 3

I 1 = m l 2 3

I 2 = m l 2 1 2 + 5 m l 2 4 = I 3

I = m l 2 3 + 2 [ m l 2 1 2 + 5 m l 2 4 ]

= m l 2 3 + 2 × 1 1 2 ( 1 6 ) m l 2

= ( 1 3 + 8 3 ) m l 2

= 9 3 m l 2 = 3 m l 2

According to question, we can write

l = 2 π r r = l 2 π

I 1 = m l 2 3 , a n d I 2 = m r 2 2 = m l 2 8 π 2

I 1 I 2 = m l 2 3 × 8 π 2 m l 2 = 8 π 2 3
