Key Idea Apply theorem of parallel axis and the total moment of inertia will be the sum of moment of inertia of each rod. Moment of inertia of rod about an axis through its centre of mass and perpendicular to rod + (mass of rod) × (perpendicular distance between two axes) =12Ml2+M(2l)2=3Ml2 Moment of inertia of the system =3Ml2×4 =34Ml2

Two cities X and Y are connected by a regular bus service with a bus leaving in either direction every T min. A girl is driving scooty with a speed of 60 $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ in the direction X to Y notices that a bus goes past her every 30 minutes in the direction of her motion, and every 10 minutes in the opposite direction. Choose the correct option for the period T of the bus service and the speed (assumed constant) of the buses.
