Torque Using Moment of Inertia

Torque is a rotational force.

Torque equals the product of the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration.

Formula

QuantityVariable["τ", "Torque"] == QuantityVariable["I", "MomentOfInertia"]*QuantityVariable["α", "AngularAcceleration"]

symbol description physical quantity
τ torque "Torque"
I moment of inertia "MomentOfInertia"
α angular acceleration "AngularAcceleration"
