2.0\,\text{kg}

, width

0.40\,\text{m}

, and height

0.20\,\text{m}

. Find its rotational inertia about an axis perpendicular to the plate and passing through a point that is

0.10\,\text{m}

to the right of its center. (a)

7.3\times10^{-2}\,\text{kg}\,\text{m}^{2}

(b)

5.3\times10^{-2}\,\text{kg}\,\text{m}^{2}

(c)

3.3\times10^{-2}\,\text{kg}\,\text{m}^{2}

(d)

1.1\times10^{-1}\,\text{kg}\,\text{m}^{2}
