Can you please help me with the following problem?
I have four masses connected by massless rigid rods so that they form the square in xy plane (each rod has length 10cm). I need to to find the moment of inertia about an axis that passes through the mass positioned at the lower left vertex of the square and perpendicular to the page. The mass at that point is 100g and all other masses are 200g.
I have a feeling that this should be very simple but all I've got is the center of mass - (5.7cm, 5.7cm) using the coordinate system with the origin at that lower left corner, and (0,10), (10, 0) and (10, 10) as the coordinates of other masses.I have the final solution but I really need the procedure how to get there.
Thanks for any help!

I have been with my girlfriend for 4 years and she has lied about cheating 3 times. She has now asked me to marry her. I know there is a huge trust issue here, but keep this in mind. She has been with me during my great times and bad times, which includes three life threating seizures, where one seizure she actually saved me from drowning during a seizure. I deep down love her and cannot imagine being without her, nor with these new seizures I don't feel comfortable alone. We have had the best times of my life together, but I have also been hurt extremely bad. What should I do?

okay there's this guy that I really really really like, actually I'm in love with him. I was best friends with him before... when he suddenly told me how he felt. We've been going on tons of dates, he's been saying he loves me yet now for some reason he's all confused about everything saying things like how he doesn't know if we're meant to be "together forever" or even bf/gf (no, we haven't made anything official) so he doesn't want to get in too deep. And yes I know "I love you" seems quite deep to me too. And I told him that. But now I'm just soooo confused today he just said "i love you" out of nowhere, how can you say that yet not even know if we're supposed to be gf/bf?


p.s. over the last few days I've cut off the lovey dovey stuff and have just trying to act like he's just my friend since he's making me sad.

The following are some real teachings of Islam:

Women have half the rights of men: in court witness (surah 2:282) and in inheritance
(surah 4:11).

A man may punish his wife by beating her (surah 4:34).

A man may marry up to four wives at the same time (surah 4:3).

A wife is a sex object for her husband (surah 2:223).

Muslims must fight until their opponents submit to Islam (surah 9:29).

A Muslim must not take a Jew or a a Christian for a friend (surah 5:51).

A Muslim apostate must be killed (surah 9:12).

Stealing is punished by the amputation of the hands (surah 5:38).

Adultery is punished by public flogging (surah 24:2).

Resisting Islam is punished by death, crucifixion or the cutting off of the hands and feet
(surah 5:33).

Fate decides everyone's eternal destination (surah 17:13).

Every Muslim will pass through Hell (surah 19:71).

Heaven in Islam is the place where a Muslim will be reclining, eating meats and delicious fruits, drinking exquisite wines, and engaging in sex with virgins (surah 55:54- 56) &
(surah 52:17,19).

I'm working 6 days.... 48 hours... sometimes 56 in a week. It's not likely for me to get less hours, and I need the hours to pay my bills. I get no paid vacation either.

I drink Coke all the time, I've always got a can of coke or drinking from the big bottles out of the fridge every 5 minutes.

I always get this feeling that it is probably really bad for you and in a few years someone is gonna confirm that drinking it is doing as much damage as smoking or being a alcoholic.

Jesus christ came in to this world to take away the sin of the world. He had victory over death and sin..Then why are still rolling in the same **** (nature of sin) which existed from the beginning..?
