Solved Problem on Moment of Inertia
advertisement   



Calculate the moment of inertia of a body of mass M relative to an axis at a distance D,



Problem Data:
  • Mass fo body:    M;
  • Distance to the axis:    D.
Solution

The moment of inertia relative to the axis is given by
\[ \bbox[#99CCFF,10px] {I=\sum_{i=1}^{n}m_{i}r_{i}^{2}} \]
for n =1, the moment of inertia is simply
\[ \bbox[#FFCCCC,10px] {I=MD^{2}} \]
