Moment of inertia through scaling and the parallel axis theorem

Abstract A right triangular plate scaled by a factor two generates a bigger plate composed of four triangular plates the same size as the original. By using dimensional analysis we write the moment of inertia around the center of mass, for the original and the bigger plate, in terms of a common unkn...
