i wanted to clear my one confusion ,that
what is actual difference between polar mass moment of inertia and simply moment of inertia…??
Polar mass moment of inertia refers to the resistance of an object to rotational motion around an axis through its center of mass. This type of moment of inertia is used when calculating rotational motion in three dimensions. Simply moment of inertia, on the other hand, refers to the resistance of an object to rotational motion around an axis perpendicular to its plane. This type of moment of inertia is used when calculating rotational motion in two dimensions.
Polar mass moment of inertia is calculated by integrating the mass of each individual particle in an object with respect to their distances from the axis of rotation. This integral is typically represented by the symbol Ip.
The polar mass moment of inertia of an object depends on its mass distribution, shape, and the axis of rotation. Objects with more mass concentrated closer to the axis of rotation have a smaller moment of inertia, while objects with more mass distributed farther from the axis of rotation have a larger moment of inertia.
Simply moment of inertia is calculated by summing the products of the mass of each individual particle and the square of its distance from the axis of rotation. This sum is typically represented by the symbol Is.
The moment of inertia affects rotational motion by determining how much torque is required to produce a given angular acceleration. Objects with a higher moment of inertia require more torque to achieve the same angular acceleration as objects with a lower moment of inertia.
