MOMENT OF INERTIA

Moment of inertia of a body with respect to an axis of rotation is the product of the mass(m) and the square of perpendicular distance from axis of rotation(r).
                            I= mr2

S.I unit is kgm2.

- Moment of inertia is that property due to which objects oppose any change in their state of rotatry motion.
- Moment of inertia of a body depends on the axis of rotation of the body.
