#23answer a-c

(4%) Problem 23: A uniform rod of mass M and length L is free to swing back and forth by pivoting a distance x from its center. It undergoes harmonic oscillations by swinging back and forth under the influence of gravity. Randomized Variables M =4.6 kg L = 13 m x = 0.42 m Forbes, David - david.forbes@doane.edu @theexpertta.com - tracking id: 9N69-72-B9-45-AB7A-40021.
