Moments of inertia for a solid tetrahedron
Description
In physics and applied mathematics, the mass moment of inertia, measures the extent to which an object resists rotational acceleration about an axis, and is the rotational analogue to mass. For a solid tetrahedron the moment of inertia in respect to the axis passing through the centroid of the tetrahedron can be calculated by its side and mass.
Variables
Isolid | Moment of Inertia (kg*m2) |
m | The mass of the solid tetrahedron (kg) |
s | The side of the tetrahedron (m) |
