  2. Perpendicular axis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpendicular_axis_theorem

    The perpendicular axis theorem (or plane figure theorem) states that for a planar lamina with a uniform mass distribution, the moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the lamina is equal to the sum of the moments of inertia about two mutually perpendicular axes in the plane of the lamina, which intersect at the point where the perpendicular axis passes through.

  3. Stretch rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretch_rule

    In classical mechanics, the stretch rule (sometimes referred to as Routh's rule) states that the moment of inertia of a rigid object is unchanged when the object is stretched parallel to an axis of rotation that is a principal axis, provided that the distribution of mass remains unchanged except in the direction parallel to the axis. [1]

  4. Tennis racket theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_racket_theorem

    The tennis racket theorem or intermediate axis theorem, is a kinetic phenomenon of classical mechanics which describes the movement of a rigid body with three distinct principal moments of inertia. It has also been dubbed the Dzhanibekov effect , after Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Dzhanibekov , who noticed one of the theorem's logical consequences ...

  5. Moment of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_of_inertia

    Moments of inertia may be expressed in units of kilogram metre squared (kg·m 2) in SI units and pound-foot-second squared (lbf·ft·s 2) in imperial or US units. The moment of inertia plays the role in rotational kinetics that mass (inertia) plays in linear kinetics—both characterize the resistance of a body to changes in its motion. The ...

  6. List of moments of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_moments_of_inertia

    The moments of inertia of a mass have units of dimension ML 2 ([mass] × [length] 2). It should not be confused with the second moment of area, which has units of dimension L 4 ([length] 4) and is used in beam calculations. The mass moment of inertia is often also known as the rotational inertia, and sometimes as the angular mass.

  7. Second polar moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_polar_moment_of_area

    The second polar moment of area, also known (incorrectly, colloquially) as "polar moment of inertia" or even "moment of inertia", is a quantity used to describe resistance to torsional deformation , in objects (or segments of an object) with an invariant cross-section and no significant warping or out-of-plane deformation. [1]

    A demonic California dad has been arrested for allegedly beheading his 1-year-old son Friday in an early-morning frenzy of violence that also injured his wife and her mother, according to police.

  9. Parallel axis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_axis_theorem

    The parallel axis theorem, also known as Huygens–Steiner theorem, or just as Steiner's theorem, [1] named after Christiaan Huygens and Jakob Steiner, can be used to determine the moment of inertia or the second moment of area of a rigid body about any axis, given the body's moment of inertia about a parallel axis through the object's center of gravity and the perpendicular distance between ...
