A rod is pivoted at one end. Four particles are attached to the rod, which has a length of (6.00 , textm). Starting at the top left and going clockwise, the masses of the particles are (m₁ = 2.90 , textkg), (m₂ = 2.10 , textkg), (m₃ = 4.30 , textkg), and (m₄ = 2.30 , textkg). What is the moment of inertia (in ( textkg ⋅ textm² )) of the rod about its center of mass?
a) (22.8 , textkg ⋅ textm²)
b) (23.7 , textkg ⋅ textm²)
c) (24.6 , textkg ⋅ textm²)
d) (25.5 , textkg ⋅ textm²)
