Moment of Inertia Ratio

The moment of inertia ratio is the ratio of the actual moment of inertia to an object's inertia if it were a point mass.

The moment of inertia ratio equals the moment of inertia divided by the mass times the radius squared.

Formula

QuantityVariable["γ", "MomentOfInertiaRatio"] == QuantityVariable["I", "MomentOfInertia"]/(QuantityVariable["m", "Mass"]*QuantityVariable["R", "Radius"]^2)

symbol description physical quantity
γ moment of inertia ratio "MomentOfInertiaRatio"
