Problem 21-1
Show that the sum of the moments of inertia of a body, Ixx+Iyy+Izz , is independent of the orientation
of the x, y, z axes and thus depends only on the location of the origin.
Solution:

However, x2 + y2 + z2 = r2 , where r is the distance from the origin O to dm. The magnitude | r |
does not depend on the orientation of the x, y, z axes. Consequently, Ixx + Iyy + Izz is also
independent of the x, y, z axes.

Problem 21-21
If a body contains no planes of symmetry, the principal moments of inertia can be determined
mathematically. To show how this is done, consider the rigid body which is spinning with an angular
velocity ω, directed along one of its principal axes of inertia. If the principal moment of inertia about
this axis is I, the angular momentum can be expressed as H = Iω = Iωxi + Iωyj + Iωzk. The
components of H may also be expressed by Eqs. 21-10, where the inertia tensor is assumed to be
known. Equate the i, j, and k components of both expressions for H and consider ωx, ωy, and ωz to be
unknown. The solution of these three equations is obtained provided the determinant of the
coefficients is zero. Show that this determinant, when expanded, yields the cubic equation
I3 -(Ixx+ Iyy + Izz)I2 + (IxxIyy + IyyIzz + IzzIxx- I2
xy - I2
yz-I2
zx)I -(IxxIyyIzz - 2IxyIyzIzx - IxxI2
yz - IyyI2
zx - IzzI2
xy) =
0. The three positive roots of I, obtained from the solution of this equation, represent the principal
moments of inertia Ix, Iy, and Iz.
Solution:
H
= Iω
Iωxi

Equating the i, j, and k components to the scalar

Show that if the angular momentum of a body is determined with respect to an arbitrary point A, then
HA can be expressed by Eq. 21-9. This requires substituting ρA = ρG + ρGA into Eq. 21-6 and
