The “feel” of a manipulated object depends upon several factors including its weight and moment of inertia. Although weight has received considerable investigation, less attention has been paid to moment of inertia. This paper summarizes the present state of knowledge regarding the moment of ...
Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed, when no forces act upon them...
In other words, the mass of the object is a measure of its tendency to resist the force and continue in the same state of motion. Although mass and inertia don't mean exactly the same thing, inertia is usually measured in units of mass. In the SI system, its units are grams and kil...
The inertia of a body or object in linear motion is equated according to its mass. But, on the other hand, the inertia of a body in a circular motion is complicated and it depends upon the shape of the body. Besides, the formula of the generalized expression for the moment of inertia...
However, the moment of inertia (I) is always described in relation to that axis. The moment of Inertia depends on the distribution of the mass around its axis of rotation. MOI varies depending upon the position of the axis that is chosen. That is, depending on the location and direction ...
Inertia is the idea that an object keeps moving unless acted upon by an outside force. A basic law of physics, inertia explains...

Furthermore, negative mass may lead to an explanation of mysterious dark energy and dark matter that is theorized to constitute 95% of the observable Universe [16]. Unfortunately, the realization of an object or device that exhibits or can produce true negative mass is rarely discussed. Indeed,...
2. Description of the Prior Art A large number of devices are known in the art for providing a signal upon excessive inertial changes in a body movement. These devices all strive to provide simplicity of construction, inexpensive manufacture, mounting adaptability, especially in a vehicle environm...
