Mass moment of inertia of two arbitrary masses placed will be same as the mass moment inertia of the rigid body.

(a) True

(b) False

This question was posed to me in examination.

I'd like to ask this question from Correction Couple to be Applied to Make the Two Mass Systems Dynamically Equivalent topic in division Inertia Forces in Reciprocating Parts of Machine Dynamics

Right choice is (b) False

Easiest explanation: Mass moment of inertia of two arbitrary masses placed will be different as the mass moment inertia of the rigid body, this is why there is a need to calculate the correction couple.
