Question
A thin, circular hoop with a radius of 0.32 m is hanging on a nail. Adam notices that the hoop is oscillating back and forth through small angles like a physical pendulum. The moment of inertia of the hoop for the rotational axis passing through the nail is I = 2mr^2. What is the period of the hoop?

Answer:
1.605 s
Explanation:
radius of hoop = 0.32 m
moment of inertia
period P of a hoop is given as
since
therefore the period of the hoop reduces to
where = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
