A non-uniform rod AB has mass M and length 2L, The mass per unit the length of the rod is mx at a point of the rod distant x from A. find the moment of inertia of the rod about an axis passing through A.

Consider a small element dx. x distance away from point A.
mass of small element = (Mx)*dx
Moment of inertia, dI = (Mx)*dx*x2
Integrating both sides
I = M( ∫ xdx)
limit 0 to 2L
I = M[x4/4]
Putting limits
I = M[(16L4/4)-0]
I = 16ML4/4 = 4ML4
