Moment of inertia of different bodies

The moment of inertia of various bodies 3D virtual laboratory work on physics (section: Mechanics).

Intended use: Simulation of a laboratory work on general physics.

PURPOSE OF THE EXPERIENCE: Determination of the moment of inertia of various bodies.

Brief description: The moment of inertia of a body rotating around its axis depends on how its mass is distributed relative to this axis. This relationship is investigated using a bar with two weights, which are placed symmetrically about the axis of rotation, a wooden disc, a wooden ball, and a hollow and a solid cylinder. The period of oscillations of the investigated bodies depends on the distribution of mass and the effective radius of the body.
