    This document describes an experiment to investigate the relationship between applied torque, moment of inertia, and angular acceleration of a cylinder rotating about a fixed axis. The experiment aims to determine the moment of inertia of the cylinder by measuring the angular acceleration produced by different applied torques and comparing the results to the theoretical relationship that torque equals moment of inertia times angular acceleration. Materials needed include a rotational inertia apparatus, meter stick, string, slotted masses, timer, balance, and calipers.
