Four booms of \( 600 \) mm\( ^2 \) each lie \( 150 \) mm above and below the neutral axis. The section's second moment of area is

  • A.3.6e5 mm^4
  • B.5.4e7 mm^4
  • C.2.7e7 mm^4
  • D.1.08e8 mm^4

Answer: B

Correct answer: 5.4e7 mm^4

All four booms are at the same distance, so all four contribute equally: \[ 4 \times 600 \times 150^2 = 2400 \times 22{,}500 = 5.4\times10^7\ \mathrm{mm^4}. \] Whether a boom is above or below the axis makes no difference, since the distance is squared.
