Moment of Inertia of a Thick-walled Cylindrical Tube Calculator
Posted by Dinesh onCalculate moment of inertia of a thick-walled cylindrical tube (axis at the center of the cylinder perpendicular to its height) by using moment of inertia calculator.
The mass moment of inertia, usually denoted by I, measures the extent to which an object resists rotational acceleration about a particular axis, and is the rotational analogue to mass. Mass moments of inertia have units of dimension ML²([mass] × [length]²). It should not be confused with the second moment of area, which is used in beg calculations. The mass moment of inertia is often also known as the rotational inertia, and sometimes as the angular mass.
Formula:
where,
I = Moment of inertia of the thick-walled cylindrical tube
m = Mass of the cylinder
r = Radius of the circle of its base
h = Height of the cylinder
I = Moment of inertia of the thick-walled cylindrical tube
m = Mass of the cylinder
r = Radius of the circle of its base
h = Height of the cylinder
