MOMENT OF INERTIA Chua‚ Richard Janssen J.‚ PHY11L/A3 chardsenchua77@yahoo.com Abstract The moment of inertia‚ or also known as the rotational inertia‚ is the rotational analog of a rigid body to a linear or an angular motion. It is one of the fundamentals of the dynamics of rotational motion. The moment of inertia must always be in a specified chosen axis of rotation. The point of motion is basically defined as the relationship between mass and the perpendicular distance to the rotational

Sadie D. Hood Lab 8: Moment of Inertia Partner: Florence Doval Due 16 November 2011 Aims: To use a centripetal force apparatus to calculate the moment of inertia of rotating weights‚ using theories derived from ideas of energy transfer (Im = MR2 (g/2h)(t2-t02)) and point mass appoximation (m1r12 + m2r22). Set Up Procedure First we measured the weights of two masses and wingnuts that secure them. Then we placed one of the masses on the very end of a horizontal rod on the centripetal force apparatus

My most embarrassing moment I consider myself to be one who doesn’t easily get embarrassed‚ but one of my most embarrassing moments happened this past summer. It all started when a few friends of mine decided that since it was incredibly hot out that summer day‚ that we should all go down to Tubbs hill for a swim. I’m not sure if you realize how busy downtown is during mid-summer season‚ but understand it’s almost always completely jammed full of people trying to fight off the blistering sun

Moment of Inertia Formula The Moment of inertia is the property by the virtue of which the body resists angular acceleration. In simple words we can say it is the measure of the amount of moment given to the body to overcome its own inertia. It’s all about the body offering resistance to speed up or slow down its own motion. Moment of inertia is given by the formula Where R = Distance between the axis and rotation in m M = Mass of the object in Kg. Hence the Moment of Inertia is given in Kgm2

A moment in History As we come into high school‚ we continue to learn more and more of our great nation’s history. Countless events had led up to what the world is today‚ such as the civil rights movement‚ women’s right to vote‚ 9/11‚ and Pearl Harbor. Although‚ there are more influential events on our world. To be specific‚ Benjamin Franklin. Benjamin Franklin gave us one of the greatest gifts the world has ever received‚ electricity. “People always fear change. People feared electricity when

Moment of truth The crowd was deafening. A few drunken chants‚ a boo here and there was all I could make out over my asthma-like pants. I didn’t blame them though. For two rounds I’ve been dodging‚ shifting‚ and shoving myself around the ring. I didn’t stand still‚ I couldn’t stand still. I wasn’t going to win this one.
