  2. Torque and Moment of Inertia Rotational Analog to Newton’s Second Law (F = ma): Units of τ: Nm Units of I: kg m2 Units of α: rad/s2 Torque = (moment of inertia) x (rotational acceleration) Moment of inertia I depends on the distribution of mass and, therefore, on the shape of an object. Moment of inertia for a point mass is the mass times the square of the distance of the mass from the axis of rotation.

Which has the larger moment of inertia? HoopB) Disk C) Same The hoop’s mass is concentrated at its rim, while the disk’s is distributed from its center to its rim. So, the hoop will have the larger moment of inertia.
