Question

The calculation of moment of inertia about inclined axis due to the loadings involve a quantity called ____________

(a) Moment

(b) Inertia

(c) Moment of Inertia

(d) Rotation

The question was asked during an interview for a job.

My enquiry is from Moments of Inertia for an Area About Inclined Axis in section Moments of Inertia of Engineering Mechanics

Answer 1

The correct choice is (c) Moment of Inertia

For explanation I would say: The calculation of the moment of the body due to the loadings involve a quantity called a moment of inertia. This is having much significance in the various fields in the engineering sector. The main types are the ‘I’ section structures which are being much used.
