Chapter 10: Problem 12
A triangular prism (like a box of Toblerone) of mass \(M,\) whose two ends are equilateral triangles parallel to the \(x y\) plane with side \(2 a,\) is centered on the origin with its axis along the \(z\) axis. Find its moment of inertia for rotation about the \(z\) axis. Without doing any integrals write down and explain its two products of inertia for rotation about the \(z\) axis.
