Answer :
moment of inertia is the rotational equivalent of mass. it is given by I= Mk2

moment of inertia in rotational motion play the same role as mass in linear motion, that is in linear motion f = ma while in rotation, torque= I*Angular acceleration where I is the moment of inertia.

Answer:
The physical significance of the moment of inertia is similar to the mass in the translational motion. In translational motion, the mass of a body is used for measuring inertia. As the mass increases, inertia becomes larger. The force required for producing the linear acceleration will also increase.
In rotational motion, the greater the moment of inertia, angular acceleration will require more torque.
It is important to understand that the moment of inertia depends on three factors, and they are:
- Mass of the body
- Shape, size, and density of the body
- The position of the axis of rotation
The factor depends on the moment of inertia
Moment of inertia is independent of the following factors:
- Torque
- Angular momentum
- Angular velocity
- Angular acceleration

The length of a massless rod is measured using vernier callipers having 10 vernier scale divisions and least count of 0.1 mm. Two masses 1.00 ± 0.01 kg and 4.00 ± 0.02 kg are attached to its ends. If reading of vernier scale is 5 divisions coinciding with 1.3 cm, what is the % error in locating centre of mass from lighter mass
