Mathematical Formulation

The relationship between the variables is governed by the following equation:

Result = 0.5 × i × w × w
Eq 1.1: Governing Formula

Variable Legend

Symbol Parameter Unit
i Moment Inertia (I) kg·m²
w Angular Vel (ω) rad/s

Practical Calculation Example

Problem

Calculating the result when:

  • Moment Inertia (I) = 5 kg·m²
  • Angular Vel (ω) = 60 rad/s

Solution

Substituting into Eq 1.1:

Result = 0.5 × 5 × 60 × 60
