Moments of Inertia
Lesson 7.6
Review
• Recall from previous lesson the first
moment about y-axis
n
M y   mi xi
i 1
 m1 x1  m2 x2  ...  mn xn
• The moment of inertia (or second moment)
is the measure of the tendency of an
object to resist change in motion
2
Moment of Inertia
• For a system of n masses
n
I y   mi xi 2
i 1
 m1 x12  m2 x2 2  ...  mn xn 2
• If the masses were at the same distance r
from the axis of rotation we have
n
I y   mi r 2
i 1

Radius of Gyration
Ix
• Radius of gyration about x-axis
rx 
(where m is total mass of system)
m
• Radius of gyration about y-axis
ry 
Iy
m
• Radius of gyration about the origin
r0  rx  ry

Example
• Suppose we have 3g at (2,3), 4g at (-2,-4),
and 3g at (-4,5)
• Find Iy
 Iy
= 3*2 2 + 4*(-2)2 + 3*(-4)2 = 76
• Find Ix
 Ix
= 3*32 + 4*(-4)2 + 3*52 = 166
• Find r0
 r0-
= 4.9193
