Write the practical uses of moment of inertia.
(N/A) The practical application of the moment of inertia is observed in machines such as steam engines and automobile engines.
These machines utilize a disc with a very large moment of inertia,known as a flywheel.
The flywheel resists sudden increases or decreases in the speed of the vehicle or machine.
Consequently,it minimizes jerks in the motion,ensuring a smoother operation and making travel or mechanical work more efficient.
