This page provides a diagram and functioning calculator to compute the mass moment of inertia for a solid cylinder or disc about it's central axis.
I=21mr2 The following are the variables for the equations...
- = the moment of inertia ()
- = the body's mass (kg)
- = distance between the centroid of the body and the axis, i.e. the radius (m)
