PROBLEM 9.138
A section of sheet steel 0.03 in. thick is cut and bent into the
sheet metal machine component shown. Determine the mass
moment of inertia of the component with respect to each of the
coordinate axes. (The specific weight of steel is 490 lb/ft3.)

PROBLEM 9.140*
A farmer constructs a trough by welding a rectangular piece
of 2-mm-thick sheet steel to half of a steel drum. Knowing
that the density of steel is
3
7850 kg/m
and that the thickness
of the walls of the drum is 1.8 mm, determine the mass
moment of inertia of the trough with respect to each of the
coordinate axes. Neglect the mass of the welds.
