MASS MOMENT OF INERTIA OF A THIN RECTANGULAR PLATE

Moment of inertia of rectangular plate about its center of the mass.

Moment of Inertia of Rectangular Plate Formula
Mass moment of inertia about x axis Ix= (M/12) * a2
Mass moment of inertia about y axis Iy= (M/12) * b2
Mass moment of inertia about z axis Iz= (1/12)*M*(a2+b2)
