    A light rod of length l has two masses ``m_1`` and ``m_2``
    attached to its two ends. The moment of inertia of
    the system about an axis perpendicular to the rod
    and passing through the centre of mass is :-
    (1) (``m_1``+ ``m_2``)``l^2 ``
    (2)``\sqrt{m_1+ m_2}`` ``l^2``
    (3) ``\frac{m_1m_2}{m_1 + m_2}````l^2``
    (4) ``\frac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1m_2}````l^2``
