The parallel axis theorem providesauseful way to calculate the moment of inertia I aboutanarbitrary axis. The theorem states that I=Icm + Mh2,whereIcm is the moment of inertia of theobjectrelative to an axis that passes through the center of massand isparallel to the axis of interest, M is the totalmass ofthe object, and h is the perpendicular distancebetweenthe two axes. Use this theorem and information to determinethemoment of inertia (kg·m2) of a solid cylinder ofmassM = 7.30 kg and radius R = 8.20 m relativeto anaxis that lies on the surface of the cylinder and isperpendicularto the circular ends.
