Moment of Inertia (Disk/Cylinder)

I = \frac{1}{2} M R^{2}

Moment of inertia of a solid disk or cylinder rotating about its central axis.

Variables

Moment of inertia

Rotational inertia

kg·m²

Mass

Total mass of disk

Radius

Radius of disk

I = ∫r²dm. For a disk with uniform density: I = ∫₀^R r²(2πrρh)dr = ½MR².
