The resulting angular acceleration is measured using the slope of a graph of Angular Velocity vs. Time. The rotational inertia of the disk and ring combination is calculated from the torque and the angular acceleration. The procedure is repeated for the disk alone to find the rotational inertias of the ring and disk separately.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PASCO Advantage:\u00a0<\/strong>Friction can be neglected in this compact setup. The Rotary Motion Sensor is a versatile tool that can be used in a variety of other experiments.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-12 mb-2\">\n<h4 class=\"h4\">Concepts<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"condensed \">\n<li>Rotational inertia of a ring and a disk<\/li>\n<li>Torque<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"h4\">What&#8217;s Included<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul class=\"condensed product-detail-included mb-0\">\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-supplies\/clamps-rods-and-stands\/me-8735\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Large Rod Base (ME-8735)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-supplies\/clamps-rods-and-stands\/me-8738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">90 cm Stainless Steel Rod (ME-8738)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/sensors\/pasport\/me-3420\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rotational Inertia Accessory (ME-3420)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-supplies\/mass-sets\/me-8979\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mass and Hanger Set (ME-8979)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/sensors\/pasport\/ps-2120\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PASPORT Rotary Motion Sensor (PS-2120A)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Product Experiments<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/file_downloads\/Downloads_EX_Exper\/EX-5516A-Rotational-Inertia.zip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rotational Inertia Experiment<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The complete solution for determining the rotational inertia of a ring and a disk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2346,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[111,39],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-2352","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-engineering-physics","product_cat-institute-university","pa_brand-pasco-scientific-eesti-en","first","onbackorder","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2352"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2352\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=2352"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2352"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
