Calculadora de Momento de InerciaFormula

Moment of Inertia

Moment of inertia (I) is the rotational analogue of mass. It depends on mass distribution relative to the rotation axis.

Formulas by Shape

  • Solid Sphere: I = (2/5) * m * r²
  • Hollow Sphere: I = (2/3) * m * r²
  • Solid Cylinder/Disk: I = (1/2) * m * r²
  • Thin Rod (center): I = (1/12) * m * L²
  • Exemplo Resolvido

    A solid sphere of mass 5 kg and radius 0.2 m.

    1. For a solid sphere: I = (2/5) * m * r²
    2. I = 0.4 * 5 * 0.04
    3. I = 0.4 * 0.2
    4. I = 0.08 kg·m²
